Advantages: very catchy songs, great story line

Disadvantages: have to concentrate on the story

This great musical just goes to show that Andrew Lylod Webber and tim rice, are not the only ones that can write great musicals.
This musical has everything - spine chilling sadness, many feelings lots of homour. This musical has been brought into the ninetines with some very catchy songs with some wild guitars!


We follow the lifes of two young men, mark, a washed up production manager and rodger a washed up pop singer/guitarist. It start off with rodger playing his guitar tuning it up, and it is amazing as the song writers have managedto write a song with only the guitar tuning up! From the start of this musical it is funny with the two main charcters figuring out to pay the rent, there is many other funny moments such as marks ex lover (Maureen) has turned into a lesbian so Mark and Maureen's new lover sing off how they hate her called the 'tango maureen'.

But then they are serious stuff as well such as rodger figures he has aids and they song 'One song' which he sings about his discovery, just makes the hair on my neck stand up.

An amazing musical a must for every musical lover!
