We've watched movies<\/a>, TV\u00a0shows<\/a> and read books<\/a> that leave us\u00a0with a pumping sense of adrenaline, and the feeling that we could change the world if we tried hard enough.<\/p>

Then there are musicals that have changed us and put that fire in our belly; that opened our eyes to human nature and showed us how\u00a0to strive through adversity, amongst other\u00a0life lessons.<\/p>

It's one thing when you watch a movie on the silver screen, or when you read a book, and the words come alive in your head. But it's a different feeling when you see real people in front of you - dancing, singing and acting, knowing they put tremendous effort into their acts and that they truly believe in the characters they play. It just feels very relatable, as you feel the true emotion when you hear the words that reverberate around you and set your heart ablaze, making your skin tingle.<\/p>

Here on this list, we've rounded up the top 5 most inspiring and empowering musicals of all time, and we guarantee that they are must-sees.<\/p>
