I took my children to watch Matilda by the RSC last year. It was spectacular and I wouldn’t even consider myself a musical fan. Theatre I do enjoy though

I remember going to see Les Mis in London at the age of 14 and it has been my favourite ever since. Cried from start to finish.

I love musical theatre, I watched that Hamilton on Disney+, still not as good being in a live theatre. The last time was the only fools and horses.

Absolutely love this especially at the end when the old and new come together. However I’ve tried to read the book and just can’t get in to it

I watched the 25th anniversary concert too and I had seen it before. Almost stood up in my living room and gave a standing ovation. I’d had a musical fest that day

It was outstanding. Even reduced a hard soul like me to many tears.

I love musicals! I went on a fab date to see Hamilton and that was so moving and magical and I spend far too long singing the songs.

I will always have a soft spot for Wicked, I was lucky enough to watch it at the Apollo when Idina Menzel played Elphaba. I'm hoping that next year I'll get the chance to see Six. Musicals are my not guilty pleasure.

I have seen it in London, and two of my fave songs are in it, but I do find it a bit sad.

I like my musicals a bit more fluffy.

Did a bit of musical theatre back in my day... not sure how the pipes would still stack up though.

I think my all time favourite will be Tim Minchin's Mathlda, if and when I get the chance to see it.

Otherwise, I'm going to have to go with the flow, which is unusual for me. Les Mis is the GOAT.

Did you see The wizard of OZ at the Poladium even I thought it was magical. To watch the transition of a house flying on stage.

Saw Miss Saigon a couple of years ago and the opening blew me away. My oldest daughter was lucky enough to be in touring productions of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and South Pacific so they hold a special place in my heart
