I have at least two musicals meeting each of the following criteria (individually, not jointly... if there's anything that meets them jointly, color me wigged out.)

1) Is about pirates.
((Solved by darkladyothsith: Pirates of Penzance and The Pirate Queen))
2) Is about a French revolution.
((Solved by dokool: Les Miserables and The Scarlet Pimpernel))
3) Takes ( Read more... )

We're talking stage musicals, right?

2) Les Mis, The Scarlet Pimpernel

13) Jesus Christ Superstar, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (in fact, I believe if you want nitpick, these can do double-duty for #19 as well)

14) The Producers, Kiss Me Kate

15) The Lion King, Aida

17) Annie!, Annie Get Your Gun

20) The Wiz, Wicked (both adapting The Wizard of Oz)

3 1/2 Internet cookies, and some crumbs, pour vous.

I'm including musicals which, as far as I know, exist only in movie form, but they're mostly stage ones.

I want to know your conversion ratio, as noted in a deleted comment to a deleted comment =P

(p.s. you can actually edit comments now, no need to delete)

Sorry, I meant 4 1/2 and crumbs (miscounted). You get a full cookie each for 2, 13, 14, and 15, crumbs for 17 because "Annie" is painfully obvious and well-known, and half a cookie for naming one story (the Wizard of Oz) that has been adapted more than once.

Giving away half-answers is bad. I screened your comment to keep it from giving things away to other people who want to play (even though several of your answers were wrong). However, you earn one cookie for adding Sweeny Todd to the answers for #16, since dokool already gave two valid answers for that and each additional one is now worth one cookie.

I count 9 complete-answer cookies and 7 additional answer cookies! Yay! I'm not counting dokool's answers for #19, because if I did, the two questions would be redundant - what Bible stories don't take place in the Middle East? So no points for your #19 answer, sorry.
