I’m confused about this. Musicals didn’t stop. I feel like this was a ploy to get someone to write these down for you?
Song Sung Blue Wicked (broadway show) Tik Tik Boom Hamilton The Greatest Showman La La Land Les Mis (broadway show) High School Musical Mama Mia (both of them) Sweeney Todd (broadway show) The Heights Chicago (broadway Dream Girls Across the Universe Moulin Rouge (now broadway) HairSpray (now broadway)
This is not even including all the animated ones already mentioned. Unless you mean you just don’t like them, because then you have TV Options

Almost every tv show now has a musical episode somehow as well. Star Trek Strange new worlds comes to mind.
Musicals have changed and evolved like every of form of visual medium. You also have to account for the general decline of movies. It’s the same reason there are far fewer comedies and they have moved to television. Sadly the block buster is what is keeping the movie industry alive atm.
