Andromeda DavisWith the news that we’ll finally get to see the original cast of “Hamilton” on the big screen in 2021, Broadway fans everywhere are excited. But Capricorns should be especially jazzed for “Hamilton,” since it’s the show that most closely resonates with their Zodiac sign. Curious about the rest of the Zodiac? Read on!
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Aries, your iconic Broadway musical is “The Lion King”! Yeah, it’s based on a Disney cartoon, but the Broadway show is a thrilling, creative and physically incredible performance. Plus you already know most of the songs–in fact, I bet you’re humming “The Circle of Life” right now!
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Something about the old-school glamour of classic Broadway appeals to you, Taurus, but you also like something to feel “real.” That’s why the recent revival of “The Color Purple” is perfect for you–have you seen Cynthia Erivo bringing down the house?
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
“Wicked” was the biggest Broadway show when it came out, and it’s still a fantastic musical that stands the test of time. Based on “The Wizard of Oz,” it reveals the true backstory of the Wicked Witch and her relationship with the so-called Good Witch of the East. You’ll love the witty lyrics and smart, literary plot.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Cancer, nothing is more important to you than family, which is why the Broadway version of “Waitress” is the perfect musical for you. It’s a charming, pie-filled love story–where the truest love is between a mother and her child, not a romance.
Leo (July 23-August 22)
Yes, it became the most bonkers box office flop in recent memory, but there’s a reason “Cats” was such a Broadway smash. The stage version combines catchy songs with incredible dancing. And, you know, cat costumes. You’ll love it.
Virgo (August 23-September 22)
It doesn’t get better than the classics, does it? “Les Miserables” pairs a great story with sweeping music into an old-school musical that still thrills audiences today. Musical theater geeks adore “Les Mis,” and so will you.
Libra (September 23-October 22)
It doesn’t get bigger or more iconic than “Phantom of the Opera.” The over-the-top sets, lush vocals and major melodrama appeal to your inner theater geek.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
Scorpio, you don’t necessarily get into the whole “musical theater” thing, but there’s at least one musical that appeals to you. After all, it’s all about murder. “Chicago” is a fun, sexy tongue-in-cheek musical with some scorching numbers like “Cell Block Tango.”
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
“Rent” was a huge counter-culture touchstone in the late 90s. Although it hasn’t necessarily aged that well, it still captures a beautiful, iconoclastic spirit that resonates with Sagittarius.
Capricorn (December 23-January 20)
As promised, Capricorn, your ideal musical is “Hamilton.” The biggest show in Broadway history is all about ambition, hard work and being in the room where it happens–just like you.
Aquarius (January 20-February 18)
There’s only one choice for Aquarius’s favorite musical, and that’s “Hair.” The 60s musical features the classic song “Aquarius/Let the Sun Shine In,” along with some blistering protest rock that still feels fresh today.
Pisces (February 19-March 20)
A contemporary musical with a strong message and all the feels, “Dear Evan Hansen” is a great choice for Pisces. You’ll laugh and cry (and get “You Will Be Found” stuck in your head forever).
