What is your favorite musical?
Last night my husband got to perform his first show of Into the Woods after missing the entire opening weekend due to Covid. He's been a musical theater performer for most of his life and had taken a hiatus from performing for about 20 years. He decided to dip his big toe back into performing right before Covid shut down theaters. Now that theater is coming back, I'm enjoying watching him thrive as he get's his stage wings back.
I've always loved musicals ever since I was a little girl. Watching them over and over again was a great escape from my own traumatic reality. My favorites growing up were The Music Man, Oklahoma!, Annie, My Fair Lady and Peter Pan. Now as an adult I'm a big Hamilton fan and I loved Come From Away.
