a very potter musical: despite starting theatre in 3rd grade i wasn't actually invested in theatre culture until I saw Hamilton, but this stupid parody satire musical defied all that and became one of my fav shows ever and it is still up there, if anything for nostalgia.
hamilton (duh): I was obsessed in 6th grade and it truly kicked off my love of musicals and inspired me to listen and get into more shows.
falsettos: I love the themes of found family in this as well as how eccentric and quirky the characters and music is. the revival is especially fun to analyze in terms of the production sets and such!!!!
hadestown: my big flex is that i got into this before it was on Broadway and bc of that I do think the off Broadway recording is lowkey better with a better orpheus but I digress, no matter what form/version you listen to it is a beautiful and powerful adaptation of the classic myth!
the guy who didn't like musicals: another starkid musical which got me back into my love of theatre, despite me no longer actually doing theatre.
also honorable mentions for banger soundtracks: frankenstein, in the heights, jekell and hyde, bare a pop opera (PUHLEASE WATCH THE SLIME TUTORIAL WITH JONAH PLATT ON YT IT SLAPS I PROMMY), Mozart das musical (it's German and I only listen to two songs from it but those two songs are bangers even tho I have no clue what's happening), epic concept musical (jorge rivera-herrans my king), and paris the musical (it is so 80s and tacky but is hiding a few bangers)
