"HAMILTON!! Most of the songs are so happy and upbeat and you can't resist dancing!" @ok_sam__
"Come From Away has been what I've been coming back to over and over again, it's message of hope, kindness and coming together as one to make it through have never rung more true." @RebeccaEAI1307
"'Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812', with Josh Groban, Denée Benton and Amber Gray. WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME IT'S THAT GOOD?!" @JusticeWinter7
"Cabaret. It's my favorite musical to begin with, but I Don't Care Much and What Would You Do? Are both on my writing playlist so I've been hearing them a lot. Also, the story feels somewhat timely, and not in a good way... :/" @LaraAnnDominick
"Six the Musical. Couldn't leave my bed for weeks in March with suspected covid, and that was on repeat. Recording megasix is the best marketing idea. Thank you Lucy Moss. You got me through some scary times. Music is healing. (supposed to see it 3/21 in NY, but good compromise)" @MeganElizaH

"The SpongeBob original cast album and The Prom Broadway cast album both are really good at getting me through rough times. They both just bring such absolute joy!" Cyn Donnelly
