I used to watch musicals with my roomates on Sunday afternoons and I decided this is a tradition I want to carry on with my family. A week ago Dan and I had "Musical Sunday" and he described it as demasculating although he stayed up to finish watching
The Sound of Music after I had gone to bed. Both
The Sound of Music and
Mary Poppins were on tv and I was so excited. Am I the only one that grew up watching these movies? Any suggestions on great musicals to watch?

We just started watching musicals too! Of course my first suggestion is Fiddler on the Roof. My second is 7 Brides for 7 Brothers. I LOVE the dancing in that one!
Oh, heavens, Meme-- there are so many!! Seven Brides for Seven Brothers is fantastic. The Unsinkable Molly Brown, Newsies, Guys and Dolls, The Music Man...
what a great tradition. my first thought of course is seven brides for seven brothers! and then there are some of the more recent musicals of mama mia and hairspray. does across the universe and moulon rouge count? there not on broadway but there is singing in the movie eh! go get them.
ps--hows life! peace

Yeah for musicals!! I love My Fair Lady and Fiddler. A sad but brilliant musical is West Side Story. Also, don't miss Man of La Mancha...the music is great!
hahahahaha. i was present for the honorary beginning of this tradition in your home and couldnt help but sing along. and who can help but love sound of music and baroness schrader's salmon suit and polka-dot top?
Ohhh I miss musical sundays. Mary Poppins was always a favorite. --Clear throat here--- Just a spoon full of sugar makes the medicine go down, the medicine go down.
