Just wanted to say that I found a deal on at Dress Circle (Monmouth Street, Covent Garden) a few weeks ago on a selection of musical soundtracks, 2 for £5.00. That's how I managed to get the Original Broadway Cast Recordings of both Oliver! and West Side Story. They are both BRILLIANT recordings with fantastic casts and it's forced me to realise just how amazing both shows are in terms of their music really being pivotal in the making of contemporary musical theatre classics. Both are worth listening to, so I just thought I'd bring my thoughts on them to your attention! :)

Also, I'm pretty much certainly going to see Phantom of the Opera at Her Majesty's Theatre in London this summer. It's always struck me as strange that I've never seen it (besides, of course, the 25th Anniv. Royal Albert Hall staging on DVD) and yet I'm such a massive fan of most shows that fall under the category of musical theatre. I'm so excited and I'll post a full review after I've been.
