Theatre quiz: Musical lyrics by numbers

Robin Johnson

By Robin Johnson First Published 19 April 2019, Last Updated 12 August 2020

Yes, the Theatre Quiz is back this week, and it’s more theatre-y and… er… quizzical (?) than ever before!

The game is simple: we’ve left some blanks in some London musicals’ lyrics – some well-known, some considerably less so. All you have to do is select the correct number to fill them in – but be warned, as you only get one shot at each question, and there are some tricky ones in there…

You’ve got 5 minutes. And be warned: like writing “2019” for the first few months of the year, this one’s not easy…

Good luck – and as ever, let us know how you did!

Fancy another theatre quiz from our archives? Can you take on Showstopper’s Improvised Musical challenge? Can you name which Six queen sang it? How well do you know ‘Any Dream Will Do’ from Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat? And how well do you know Waitress? Can you complete our “Try Not To Sing Along” challenge (and its sequel)? How many songs Company lyrics can you complete?

Or how many London theatres, popular Phantom Of The Opera songsWicked songsLondon theatre charactersinspirational musicalsmovie-musicalsLes Misérables songs, Olivier Award-winning musicals, or longest-running West End productions of all-time, can you name?
