Christine Daae Countess Costume!
Quite interesting that each one's different & how different it looks from Carlotta's countess dress. Sort of gives each actress their own individual look!
Films which should be musicals! (In no particular order)
1) 80's film The Princess Bride, which is amazing to be brought onto the stage with its amazing characters & plot of romance & adventure which all the family can enjoy!
2) The Nightmare Before Christmas, a classic Tim Burton film which has its unique charm with unforgettable characters & songs by the amazing Danny Elfman, with a comedic twist on Christmas & Halloween being combined with funny & disastrous consequences. The only changes I would do are to expand Sally's character development & her relationship with Jack & add a few songs here & there in additional scenes I can't think of at the moment!
3) Enchanted, because of its homage & spoof of Disney classics with its own modern twist which everyone can enjoy & relate to & has an amazing score & songs which are worthy for the theatre!
4) Moulin Rouge! I can just picture it in my head being a spectacle, with its touching story of love being perfect for the stage, with its captivating cover versions of classic songs & the coveted Come What May being the cherry on top!

Top 5 Best Fiyeros in Wicked!
1) London Fiyero, Lee Mead! I saw him 2 years ago & he was amazing at singing Dancing Through Life & was funny when he's introduced as a lazy & vain prince who eventually falls in love with Elphaba.
2) Original Broadway Fiyero, Norbet Leo Butz, with his amazing voice during Dancing Through Life & As Long as You're mine & his funny personality which also shows a touching & sensitive side to Fiyero.
3) London Fiyero, Oliver Tompsett! I saw him as Fiyero 2 years ago before Lee Mead joined the cast & I thought he was marvellous with his comedy timing being spot on & his singing really enjoyable to listen to during Dancing Through Life.
4) Singer & American Idol runner-up & understudy Fiyero, Adam Lambert! I was so shocked when I heard he was in Wicked & instantly looked on YouTube & he sounded amazing, even if he had a load of eyeliner on & an emo haircut!
5) US tour Fiyero & Warner in Legally Blonde, Richard H Blake! He sounds amazing during Dancing Through Life, but all I could think about was him singing Serious from Legally Blonde! At least his version of Fiyero isn't like Warner who's downright selfish & horrible!
