I've been rather set on collecting Broadway and soundtracks lately.
So, of course, most of them have been inspiring to doll characters from
those
respective plays (or movies... since some of them have movies made based
on the plays XD). So here they are :)
* Not Adoptable
Wicked! My absolute favorite musical
(as you can tell by all the LJ icons XD). It's a clever prequel
to The
Wizard of Oz,
which follows the story of Glinda, the Witch of the North, and
Elphaba,
Witch
of the
West, from college to Elphaba's melting. It also tells you how the
Tin Man, Scarecrow, and Lion got to be where they were when they met
Dorothy XD And the music!! Don't even get me started on the music XD |

| This is a musical I've recently started really liking. When I first heard about it I was unsure if I would like it, but I fell in love as soon as I heard the music. This is basically a modern day story based on La Boheme, an opera by Puccini. It's been on Broadway since 1996, and there's a movie coming out in November with the same name and with the majority of the original cast. I recommend it :D | ||

Ah, Reefer Madness. The newest
in my collection of addictive musicals with catchy tunes XD This was
originally a propaganda anti-marijuana film made in 1936 that was made
so poorly that it became a cult classic. Finally, the story was given
music and viola! You have a satirical musical with catchy songs and
hilarious characters. Of course the critics aren't too fond of it,
but I am XD The movie is ocassionally on Showtime, and the DVD is
coming out in October 2005. So, if you haven't seen it I recommend
you do. |

Chicago! The best musical
around!! I haven't seen the stage musical *tear* but I've heard it's
quite good. The movie version has officially taken the place of my
favorite movie (non Disney movies, of course.) |

My 'Les Miserables'
Collection. This is
the first Broadway musical
I saw. At the moment, my collection is made up of the leading
ladies only, plus Marius & Eponine. I'm absolutely in love with
my latest addition: Marius hugging Eponine. I was listening to "A
Little Fall of Rain" and I just got inspired. That doll is the
result :D I'm still not sure if I plan to make all the characters. |

Cosette. I don't really like her
Basecharacter too much, but I love her gorgeous soprano voice. |

 Eponine.
BaseShe's my favorite of the three. |
 Fantine. I love her voice
Base(Broadway version). |

Phantom of the Opera! It took me a couple of
years to really appreciate the music, but after seeing Gerry Butler
in the movie version my mind was set XD One day I'll be inspired
to make more Christine dolls. Especially if I can get the DVD so
I can study the detail in her costumes XD
