See if there is interest for this.

1. Each day I will post 10 questions, at random times of the day.
2. Each Quiz runs exactly 24 hours.
3. The first person that has all 10 questions right, wins. Or if no one has all questions right, the best one wins.
4. You can only post answers ONCE for the same quiz.
5. No cash involved. Just glory. :)

Musicals aren't my strong suit, but I'll give it a shot:

2) Officer Krupke!

4) There has to be dozens... how about Gigi?

5) Les Mis... or was that earlier?

6) Elton John

8) When you know the notes to sing

9) Fiddler on the Roof, Little Orphan Annie, probably others...

Well, I know even less about musicals. I wasn't going to answer, as I'll probably make a fool out of myself for my contentiousness, but ...

6) I think the answer is Elton John, EXCEPT I don't think he wrote the lyrics. Elton John always has someone else writing his lyrics (though I can't remember the regular guys name). He's a famous non-lyricist : o )

9) Surely there are loads - my two were Les Miserables and Oliver.

Ben, 2 and a half right. You would have had 3 and a half, but you forgot part of one of them.

1. The Slave Dancer
2. Maniac Magee
3. The Midwife's Apprentice
4. Walk two moons
5. Missing May

This is a hard one but I gave it shot. Since there are not many children here, I doubt many people would get it.

Lauragabriel, thanks for posting a pubquiz!!! Awesome. Please let me know that you are going to post one next time, as we are trying to limit one per day. And those that write the pub quizzes don't want to cross post.
