The Broadway shows were pretty easy to do thanks to IBDB which helped me put them in the correct theatre. There are a ton of Off Broadway, Off Off Broadway, Oregon Shakespeare Festival (about 18 there) and other theatres in London, Canada, Edinburgh (Festival Fringe and Festival) and throughout the Caribbean. Too many to mention. This was an interesting exercise and a fun way to look back a some of the good and bad that I've seen over the years.

Not to shabby for a girl who lived in Georgia her whole life until last year.
Woah Chrys after reading your list, I realized I forgot Music Box/In My Life. How could I have forgotten that?
I've seen multiple shows in every theater except the Majestic, Lunt- Fontanne, and Winter Garden, where I've seen... none. I've seen Phantom (West End, touring cast), Beauty (touring cast, community theater), and Mamma Mia (West End) and don't care to see any of them again, even on Broadway. Only... I want to see the actual theaters! I finally bought a $20 ticket in advance to Phantom, only because I really want to see the very historical Majestic... especially after reading Frank Rich's "Ghost Light" and seeing his reverence for it.
The theaters where I've seen the most shows are the Vivian Beaumont and the Eugene O'Neill (my faaaavorite).
