Question:I am desperately trying to figure out what my director will pick for next year's musical at our school. This year we did Thoroughly Modern Millie. I am so excited that I cannot wait. He won't tell us, though. He always puts on the very popular, well-known shows. Past shows include:

Hello, Dolly!
Singin' In The Rain
Grease
The Wizard of Oz
Noises Off
Annie Get Your Gun
Guys and Dolls
Oklahoma
Barnum
Anything Goes

Does anyone know of any big shows that he hasn't done yet?

There are several not on your list -- South Pacific, Music Man, King and I, Carousel, West Side Story, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum are just a few.

The Little Shop of Horrors?

well, obviously these are guesses :)

there's the presently oh so popular High School Musical

I don't see Bye Bye Birdie on the list, looks like it'd be up to your directors genre

My Fair Lady

Into the Woods

Peter Pan

Cinderella (Rogers & Hammerstein's)

Sunday in the Park with George

West Side Story, Into the Woods, Annie, who knows. If you are a high school the school rights for RENT are now out maybe you'd do that?

West Side Story
Bye Bye Birdie
Best Little Whorehouse In Texas
South Pacific
Victor/Victoria

Cats
Phantom of the Opera
The Lion King
Mama Mia
Porgy and Bess

Obviously endless possibilities

Wicked or fiddler on the roof.
