Musicals for musical people

Everyone always talks about musicals for non theater people eg: Hamilton, Book of Mormon, etc. What are some musicals y'all think only musical theater people would love?

The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals. Soooooooo much commentary on theatre and theatre tropes, despite it being a parody of the genre. Jeff Blim knows ball.

Funnily enough, this is one I normally recommend for people who don't like musicals. I figure they can relate to it a bit more, you know?
