As it is a Bank Holiday weekend (for some anyway) and you are bored already, right? I thought I set you guys a challenge, can you name musical that are entirely or partially set in London.
i know a few, but keeping mum, to give it a clean start. I reckon there must be no more than 25?

Viva Forever
Do they have to be stage musicals? How about Disney films with songs?

How was titanic set in london? You be right. I was getting my London and my England mixed up. I'll swap it for: Tommy By Jeeves I and Albert The Likes Of Us Jack The Ripper: The Musical Sherlock Holmes: The Musical and I think in Tell Me On A Sunday/Song & Dance she's from Muswell Hill at the start. Two Cities by Howard Goodall is loosely based on A Tale Of Two Cities, so could possibly partly set in London? |
