Dad Poorly Describes Broadway Shows Quiz

Can You Guess The Broadway Shows From My Dad's Terrible Descriptions?

_The Phantom of the Opera_

"The guy with the mask is misunderstood. I don't know; I slept through it."

_Mamma Mia!_

"A woman had a lot of boyfriends at the same time, so she doesn't know which one is the father of her daughter. Everyone dances across the rocks of Greece and sings."

_Spring Awakening_

"Oh god, I had to sit next to my mother-in-law during the sex scene. There's a lot of teen angst. They really rock out."

_Dear Evan Hansen_

"A guy gets caught in a lie for a girl and cries a lot. I remember him sitting in a chair? And, his arm is broken? I guess I didn't pay close attention."

_Something Rotten!_

"Old English blokes tell jokes and make fun of Shakespeare."

_Waitress_

"This one's probably my favorite — it has the best song. A lost and abused woman escapes through baking. She has a baby and a gruff old man gives her his diner after he dies. I love Jessie Mueller."

_Once_

"I remember the cast sat on stage the entire time and played instruments. There was a couple who fell in love and sang sad songs together."

_Into the Woods_

"A baker made bread. I remember the bread looked good. The music was disjunct. Bad things happened in the woods, and I did not like it."

_Les Misérables_

"Oh no, the three hour nap! They sing _everything,_ and everyone looks miserable."

Looks like Dad's terrible descriptions got the best of you. Or, maybe you're just not a true theatre kid. If that's the case, you're really missing out!
