"Of all time" doesn't really sound right for this. I mean, there are only, what, 5? Hah.

Anyways, mine is probably Beauty and the Beast. I've just always had a soft spot for servants-turned-furniture.

Welcome to the board, by the way. :)

The Lion King is my favorite Disney musical because of the music and interesting costumes. I heard The Lion King is going on tour again. If it is going on tour, I'll have to see it again.

Aida wins, but Beauty and the Beast is close behind.

I've only seen Lion King but I'm seeing Beauty and the Beast in the fall and I'm pretty sure that will be my favorite one since I LOVE the music!

beauty and the beast, although it CAN be campy, i really believe there is something magical about that production...

its a beautiful story, and alen menken is an absolute genius with scores. and the COSTUMES and SET PEICES.

its just beautiful.

but i did love the music from aida very much, too.

Beauty & The Beast...
Aidia comes as a close second.

I'm sorry, I'm just too much of a "classic" musical lover -- Rodgers & Hammerstein etc. and Beauty & The Beast is what reminds me most of that whole era. I am really looking forward to seeing what will happen with Little Mermaid however, and who knows, that could take the cake.

I would love to have seen Hunchback when it was in Berlin.

When Poppins premieres I hope to see it, because Cameron Macintosh seems to have done a good show (at least with song placement and the pictures I've seen of the London Production)

What are all the Disney Broadway Shows?

Beauty & The Beast
King David
Lion King
Aida
Hunchback of Notre Dame (Germany only)
Marrry Poppins (UK Only/coming US Fall 2006)
Tarzan

Am I missing any?

Should we really be counting Aida?

I mean, 4 out of 5 of their Bway musicals are based on Disney movies, so shouldn't that be the standard in rating them?

Maybe I'm just being nitpicky...

No, I completely agree. Aida is in a league of its own. I think only the stage adaptations of Disney Musical Movies should be counted.
