If you know me at all, on any basic level really, then you'll know that I'm obsessed with the theater. Over the course of my life, I've seen around sixty shows, which some consider a lot but doesn't seem like much to me. Because of this, however, I feel like I'm pretty good at spotting a good show, so I have decided to compose a list of some of the best shows I've seen. It's a musical bucket list of shows that everyone should see before they die. The shows range from musicals based on real events to shows based off of books and even some classic Shakespeare (because even if you hate all things theater aka happiness, you still have to see at least one of Shakespeare's plays). The shows aren't in any particular order, but my personal favorite will forever be Newsies.

1. Newises

2. She Stoops to Conquer

3. The King and I

4. The Phantom of the Opera

5. Jersey Boys

6. The 39 Steps

7. Wicked

8. Hamlet

9. Legally Blonde

10. The Addams Family
