I love musicals that are about or by Jewish people. unironically they usually are the greatest shows with underlying layers and amazing plot. yes this is about cabaret. and falsettos. and oklahoma. and chitty chitty bang bang. and fiddler on the roof. and wicked. and west side story. and 25th annual. and little shop of horrors. and rent.

notice a theme here?

#anything thats #kander and ebb #rodgers and hammerstein #alan menken #pasek (and paul even tho hes not jewish)#stephen sondheim #stephen schwarts #or #william finn #i could genuinely talk so long about how jewish playwrights create such masterpieces by hiding themes like anti-isolationism in their works #i just am obsessed with all of these musicals and their true deeper meanings on top of the impact of their jewish heritages or faith #on their writing #its my actual favorite thing #sages autism moments :)#once again infodumping about a special interest #3/4 of my favorite musicals are by jewish composers #falsettos wss and little shop stay winning
