Musical Clues - need collective brains!

I'm taking DS to a night of musicals next week as a surprise for his birthday tomorrow but wanted to do a treasure hunt type thing to reveal it
Was thinking I could do a clue to lead him to my 'hairspray' and a clue to do with our 'cats' but then I'm stuck!
Anyone have any great ideas?!

Or you could do a picture clue with some guys (the sort you have on bonfire night) and some dolls.

Do you know any of the shows/songs that will be featured?

Lamp = Aladdin
Empty bowl = Oliver!
Picture of his mother = Mamma Mia
A wedding invitation = Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
Atlas = as above, could also be used for Chicago
Stuffed lion toy = The Lion King
French flag (could print out from the net) = Les Mis
Oil or similar = Grease
Razor = Sweeny Todd

Depending on how good his knowledge is, you could get quite obscure.
