Mix it up with Barbara Grossman, Chair of the Drama Dept.

It was hard to narrow it down to ten because there are so many shows and numbers I love. Here is the list I came up with. They are today's favorites, anyway! My favorite overture is Leonard Bernstein's overture to Candide, but I'm not counting this as one of the ten. Here they are in alphabetical order, not in order of preference. That would be much too difficult.

1. "America" from West Side Story

2. "Keep It Gay" from The Producers

3. "The Ladies Who Lunch" from Company.

4. "My Funny Valentine" from Babes in Arms.

5. "Seasons of Love" from Rent

6. "Summertime" from Porgy and Bess

7. "There's No Bus'ness Like Show Bus'ness" from Annie Get Your Gun

8. "Wheels of a Dream" from Ragtime

9. "When You Walk Through a Storm" from Carousel

10. "You're the Top" from Anything Goes
