I plan on seeing "9 to 5," "Hair," "Billy Elliot" and "Next to Normal." I only plan on seeing "9 to 5" because of Janney's presence and "Billy Elliot" because I am an Elton John fanatic and quite enjoy Carole Shelley. I am already booked to see the final performance of "Blithe Spirit," front row y'all. :)
