Recently, my kid insisted that we watch a play called ‘The Guy Who Hated Musicals’, whose premise is probably obvious, but whose execution is decidedly not. Aside from some parallels to ‘Little Shop Of Horrors’, it’s not really like other musicals I’ve watched, and I have seen quite a few of them. There’s something about a musical that appeals to me, even when they’re full of earworms like ‘Rent’ is or weird time capsules like ‘Godspell’, leading to today’s jukebox query…
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) might even make a case for ‘Top Secret’, which is one of Val Kilmer’s greatest performances and one of my favorite films, asking: Are you a fan of musical theatre?

I have to say that no, I’m not.
I very much am :)
Yes. Not all of them, but enough to say I am a fan.
