  • Number Seven on all time musical list.....

    5
    By Neena's Fave Musicals
    You have to be a musical person, this one is number seven on my top twenty favorite musicals. The story is one of those "what a difference a day makes" plot; it opens with a beggar and his daughter Marcina, they are living in Baghdad and he is a poet. I am not going to give the story away but there is love, gold, deception, and of course a strangely happy ending. The musical numbers are really great and Howard Keel as always is amazing in this role.
