I'm with you on Jesus Christ Superstar, always intrigued by that show. RENT, just because it's something I should see, even though I'm not the biggest fan. Anything I've not seen really (that's quite a lot!!) always up for new things.

Oh and Man in the Iron Mask so I can compare it with Too close to the sun - the theatrical event of the year

The Pirate Queen wasn't that bad, it just wasn't that good.
I'd like to see a well-written show with an original score, based perhaps on a novel or classic play, with great songs, a brilliant cast, and a completely healthy box office. Dream big!

That's my dream too!

Spring Awakening came close, except for the healthy box office part...

Rent - just watched the DVD of Broadway last night. Gutted never saw the original version in London.
The return of Cats, Starlight Express and Miss Saigon to the West End (surely a matter of when they'll happen, rather than if?)
Chess I'd like to see finally staged in a definitive way that pleased everyone.
Same for Martin Guerre (not actor/musician lol).
I would very much like to see Sutton Foster comming over and doing something.
Young Frankenstein
Shrek
Acorn Antiques
RAGTIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think Zorro would be great for on tour.
And I'd love to see Taboo tour again, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Allegro - not the greatest score by Rodgers & Hammerstein, but better than most other Broadway shows, with a very unusual book, way ahead of its time. The new recording on CD is marvellous.
The Light In The Piazza
Babes In Arms - with a fantastic score, loaded with classic songs by Rodgers & Hart.
New Girl In Town
Silk Stockings
Bounce (or whatever new title it has)
On A Clear Day You Can See Forever

The production at Cardiff a few years ago was one of the best musical productions of anything I've ever seen.

That was always on my list of shows I loved from the score and wanted to see on stage. (I defy anyone to listen to the OBCR and not fall in love with Barbara Harris.) Then I saw it on stage, and realised that it can't survive its book.

I agree, would love to see Saturday Night Fever and Jesus Christ Superstar tour again. Also, would like to see a revival of Billy and Starlight Express back in the west end (as I have only ever seen it on tour).

I would add the recent production of "Sunday In The Park With George" as I am gutted I missed that one.
Also: Chess, City of Angels, a full staging of Martin Guerre (if only they could dust of the original production!).

The one that was showcased in April at the New Players? Yes. I went to see Ashleigh

But really loved the score.
Today I have mostly been listening to Miss Saigon. Revival please.

Seconded on all three counts.
Woman in White needs a bit of a rewrite as well as a new set IMO.
The songs are very good but the music for the plot driven sections is pretty dire I think.

Agree with Chess and Miss Saigon. But top of the list has to be Dreamgirls!!

For me it's John Barrowman in La Cage, Legally Blonde and Sister Act - because they're some of the only West End musicals I've not seen.
