Casual Discussion Thread (July 27, 2018)

I have recently finished watching Jim Sharman's Rocky Horror Picture Show and Brian De Palma's Phantom of the Paradise and I ended up falling in love with both films. However I am not very well versed in the genre and I am having trouble finding movies similar to them. I know other famous performances such as Singin' in the Rain and The Sound of Music, and while they are amazing films in their own right, I do enjoy watching stuff (and please forgive my pretentiousness) that is not very 'vanilla'. I don't really mind whether if it's a comedy or not, either.

On top of that, are there any good musical theatre performances that haven't been made into films but have been recorded and can be found online?

Many thanks!
