Posted: 3/28/05 at 8:10pmI dont know about running today, but DOTV I think deserved a longer run, as did LSOH.

Ok. . . I agree with ALL of you EXCEPT those who liked Cats. . . I can't believe it lasted as long as it did. . . . and I'm only talking about the Gus the Theater Cat number.
. . . It appears that NO ONE mentioned the roundabout revival of NINE!!!! They FLOODED THE STAGE EACH NIGHT!!! It was the most beautiful and perfect peice of musical theater I've ever seen. I wish it were still open and with Eartha Kit still in it.
but other than that I second (and 3rd and 4th. . .) everyone's ideas! Ragtime. . . Les Miz. . . AWESOME!

My votes definitely go to:
1. Urinetown (so I could actually get a chance to see it)
2. Caroline, or Change (because it had so much depth... I just adored it)

1) Big River - (The Deaf West production, I saw the tour, and it was incredible)
2) Millie - (Only if Sutton and Gavin were back in it together)
3) Les Mis - (Why did it close and PHANTOM is still running?!?)
4) Urinetown - (with Hunter and JLT)

Posted: 3/29/05 at 1:36amI have yet to see a show actually on Broadway. But my school did Jane Eyre last year, and I would of loved to scene that on Broadway, I heard it got taken off almost right away.

Posted: 3/29/05 at 10:14amdance of the vampires and dracula are, in my opinion, amazing shows, and it saddens me that the critics couldn't see that. they should definitely still be running.

Suit on up and come brace my sword

Hollowed out hope that no time can restore."
