I'm going to new york next Tuesday through thursday. The only show
I know I'm seeing is Grey Gardens and I want to see Spring awakening.

I want to see one other straight play and one musical.

HELP! please...

Well from posts I've been reading, Journeys End is supposed to be a great play.

For musicals: Curtains, Drowsy Chaperone if you like traditional musicals; Company if you like Sondheim

I second Millie's choices. JOURNEY'S END is mind-blowing, must see theater. CURTAINS and DROWSY are both wonderful old-fashioned musicals. I also loved SPRING AWAKENING, and would highly recommend it if you want to see something that is truly moving, and breaks the traditional musical theater forms.


Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

Just to add, I have NOT see Journey's End or Company; however, they seem to be getting great feedback from posters on BWW.

I have seen Curtains and Drowsy and both were excellent.

me? nope stuck in Denver. ha!

Got Little Mermaid coming though!

Think I'll plug Company into one of the slots.

The three straight plays I'm deciding from are Journeys End, The Year of Magical thinking, and Inherit the Wind.

Any ideas as to availability at tkts? The tkts sit has not updated their "at the booths" page in quite some time.

Also anyone sit in a courtroom seat at inherit the wind yet?

Oh sorry I thought you were NathanLaneStalker.

WannaBeAFoster sat in the courtroom seats and posted it about it in the thread from the first preview.

Great choices for musicals!

I'd see "A Chorus Line" as the 3rd musical. Don't miss it!
