I wonder who will win. Rolling Eyes

I feel like this has been done before, and either people start arguing and the game dies, or the same person always wins. Confused

He's only got three musicals staged, and only one of which is particularly relevent. And was arguably better as an album.
Mungojerrie_rt

Mel Brooks only has two but he was included. How many has Elton John done?

Indeed I did, and thank you Wink

Quote:

Mel Brooks, as well as Jonathan Larson, were included due to the unbridled popularity of their shows (The Producers and Rent respectively)

And Sir Elton has done The Lion King, Aida, Lestat (unfortunately), and Billy Elliot. And for all I know, he may have done more.

As for Pete "CSI Theme Song" Townshend, I'm only aware of one show that he's down: Tommy
Pannic

Mel Brooks has three, actually. You forgot "All American." I think "Robin Hood Men in Tights" was unsuccessfully produced on stage, as well.

As for Petey, his masterpiece, Quadrophenia, has yet to hit stage, and due to the nature of the album, I don't quite see how it's possible to be faithfully staged outside of concert.
Yip1982

I would like to add one point for Rodgers, so his score will be 4. I think his style is more consistent, and there's something so comforting and classic about his musicals. I know there are some things I don't feel comfortable about, but still I would do it for the sake of SOM and K&I. However, while I feel tempted to add a point for Lloyd-Webber, I think I'd rather not do it as I've found out that I tend to like only one score of his, Cats.
wicked_diva

Where is Finn?
Salome

if you want to tlak about forgetting peopel..Noel Coward whow wrote 9 musicals and is called 'The Master".
Anno_Domini

William "What-More-Can-We-Say" Finn I did forget, yes.

As for Noel Coward, I know he wrote songs in his some of his plays, but I've never really thought of him to be a musical theatre composer. What's his most famous musical?

So I shall throw Finn into the mix, but not Mr. Coward as of yet.

(geez, make a list of 25 composers and people still complain Rolling Eyes

Cowards big musicals...


Bittersweet (filmed twice)
The Girl Who Came To Supper
Sail Away
Conversation Piece
This Year of Grace
Red Peppers
Pacific 1870

I opnly complained because Coward is one of the 5 greats


trivia: Sandy Wilson';s' musical "The boyfriend" was a parody of Coward style shows of the 30s.

Alright, we've got Stephen "Seen-It-All" Sondheim leading the pack, with Cole "De-Loveable" Porter right on his tail. However, the magic of Disney seems to be at work here, as Alan "Mickey Mouse" Menken is quickly closing the gap, with Mel "Words-Fail-Me" Brooks and Larry "OHMIGOD" O'Keefe not far behind.

Joining the pack is Claude-Michel "Less-Miserable" Schonberg
Salome

I still think Noel "mad about the Boy" Coward should be included.

I know it's a little late to point this out, but try to avoid stacking the deck, and give other people a chance. Salome, only now I'm noticing that about half of the adjustments to the list were done by you, and that somewhat ruins the point.

I fear that even if I like Les Mis a bit but not that much, I have never felt pleased with the other Boubhil-Schonberg shows, so I think I might have to minus a point for Schonberg.
