1. Do you like musicals? Why (not)?

Absolutely. I like music, and I like theater/TV/movies, so, well, why wouldn't I like musicals?
2. Do you like opera? Why (not)?

I have this feeling that I would if I got to know it more, but I can't say that I do know it.
3. What's your favorite musical?

Phantom of the Opera, probably. But I'm also very fond of Jesus Christ Superstar, The Sound of Music, and of course Once More With Feeling if that counts. And Grease is a guilty pleasure. :P
4. What elevates it above the rest?

I guess everything, really... the story, the songs, Sarah Brightman and Michael Crawford (the movie version was slightly disappointing as a result, although Emmy Rossum and Gerard Butler are good singers in their own right, and I have no complaints about the acting or general look of the movie).
5. What's your favorite opera?

Can't say that I have one.
6. What elevates it above the rest?

N/A
BONUS POINTS: Do you or have you ever teared up while watching Les Misérables? If not, how does it feel to lack a soul?

I have not, for the simple reason that I've never seen (or read) Les Mis.

Short survey. On musicals. And what the hell, why not opera too. - 31/01/2010 06:24:44 AM 921 Views
I suppose I will be narcissistic and respond to my own survey. - 31/01/2010 06:29:44 AM 613 Views
Heh. I figured "Little People" would get your tears flowing. - 31/01/2010 06:43:06 AM 518 Views
Yes, but for entirely different reasons. I confess to heartless relief when the child died. *NM* - 31/01/2010 06:49:31 AM 349 Views
Hehe, I was in Les Mis. I played that kid. - 31/01/2010 06:54:30 PM 572 Views
I think "because of" your role would be more accurate. *NM* - 31/01/2010 07:42:43 PM 315 Views
You now sadden me. - 02/02/2010 01:46:24 AM 606 Views
I hate when I switch quoting styles that it deletes my already-typed title. - 31/01/2010 06:39:37 AM 614 Views
Probably my most frequent thought while on this site. - 31/01/2010 06:47:05 AM 596 Views

Your girlfriend? *NM* - 31/01/2010 07:45:18 PM 320 Views
Yeah. I've given Deb permission to sing this one for you... - 01/02/2010 01:28:47 AM 492 Views
Why do I suspect you're being less than truthful? *NM* - 01/02/2010 02:26:36 AM 300 Views

Interesting thing I've noticed while listening to Opera - 31/01/2010 07:37:02 PM 598 Views
i agree with you, and it's not the style of music - 31/01/2010 09:54:40 PM 441 Views

How is it that you are picky about musicals?! - 31/01/2010 10:13:56 PM 596 Views
Because of the singing, I guess? - 31/01/2010 10:26:10 PM 597 Views

see, my favorite Phantom is actually the movie (with Emmy Rossum and Gerard Butler) - 31/01/2010 10:57:40 PM 567 Views
The best Phantom is what some guy did on Youtube... - 31/01/2010 11:25:50 PM 454 Views
Ugh. I heard about three clips from the movie and I will definitely not see it. - 01/02/2010 01:25:36 AM 610 Views

I was hoping you'd pick Grease 2 as your favorite musical. *NM* - 01/02/2010 04:39:03 PM 309 Views
Well I was only counting musicals I've seen on stage. - 01/02/2010 04:46:05 PM 595 Views
