Very interesting.

My top 10 list would including these 12: (not in order)

The Wild Party (LaChiusa)
Grey Gardens
Spring Awakening
Parade
Bernarda Alba
Ragtime
The Light in the Piazza
Floyd Collins
Caroline or Change
Violet
Hairspray
Hedwig and the Angry Inch

Runners Up might include:
Rent
A New Brain
Adding Machine
Dessa Rose
Taboo
Fun Home
Avenue Q
Book of Mormon
See What I Wanna See
Next to Normal
Marie Christine

There are others I enjoyed a lot (like In the Heights) but that haven't meant anything to me outside the theater.

I haven't seen nor am I familiar with Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.
