What is the best modern musical other than Hamilton?










Obviously a ton I didn't name, but those were my favorites off the top of my head

Define modern
A very loose term, generally I'd say anything that premiered since 2000. It's entirely possible something I listed doesn't fit that, I was just going off the top of my head.

I liked Do The Necronomicon and chuckled at What the Fuck Was That, but didn't really like it overall

If you liked Book of Mormon you'd probably like Something Rotten.

Thats fair. Id say in terms of critical success Billy Elliott performed the best in that timeframe, but my personal favorites would be Next to Normal, Wicked, Newsies, and Urinetown

Next to Normal
I keep hearing this mentioned as AMAZING, but I wonder if the soundtrack would do it justice given the subject matter, it seems like you'd appreciate it a lot more with the stage play

Also love seeing Newsies get mentioned. Haven't listened to Billy Elliot or Urinetown next, I'll look into them

Next to Normal is wonderful, I had the pleasure of seeing it on Broadway with its original cast (including Aaron Tveit) when it first opened, so it holds a special place in my heart for sure. I would say that the soundtrack doesnt quite do it justice, but its still worth a listen because several of the tracks are just great numbers in their own right.

Listening to Next To Normal and yeah, this is really good, but I don't have the full context. Still will see the show if I get the chance!
