Student Blog: My Favorite Musical Theatre Songs  Image

Honestly, I was stumped for ideas on what to write this week, so I decided to share things that I enjoy: my personal favorite songs from a bunch of musicals--basically, recommending songs--one per musical. There's no particular correlation to any of these other than that I like them all. I hope you enjoy!
