Wicked is actually relatively new if I'm not mistaken.

It's a low budget 45 minute show, released exclusively on the internet during the writers strike last year.

It's about an aspiring villian who is desperately trying to get into the Evil League of Evil, whilst building the confidence to ask out the girl he goes to the laundromat to see. It's got plenty of laughs, a surprisingly good plot and story, and great music too.

Here's the trailer:

I just really really want to share this song with everyone. I've been cracked out on it for over a month and it's worked it's way into the slot of the most played song on my iTunes.

I give you "Midnight Radio" from Hedwig and the Angry Inch. It reminds me in ways of the early David Bowie collaborations with Iggy Pop.

I typically hate musicals, but there is one exception so far: Tommy (The Who's rock opera). Now that was a great musical, assuming it's considered a musical. Well, I say it is anyway

Not sure if this counts, but it's the only live musical I've seen.....

Jeff Wayne's War Of The Worlds

It's good but not a patch on the original album with Phil Lynott, Julie Covington, Justin Hayward, Chris Thompson and David Essex....and, of course, Richard Burton.
