Sorry everyone for writing a whole new post for this but I have been looking around online and can't find or there is no information about alternative schedules for shows. I am coming from NZ for six days (4-9 August)with a WHOLE swag of shows already booked in but just wondering if anyone knows of any alternate schedule/other shows/other ideas for matinees/late nights. 

Tuesday evening: Hand to God

Wednesday Matinee: An American in Paris

Wednesday Evening: Fun Home

Thursday Evening: Something Rotten

Friday Evening: King and I

Saturday Matinee: Hamilton

Saturday Evening: Curious Incident

Sunday Matinee: Hedwig

I have already seen Phantom, Mamma Mia and Matilda which have the Thursday Matinee options.

Thanks in advance for any advice or help.

wicked does a friday matinee

Something Rotten, Book of Mormon, Lion King, Chicago, and Hand to God do a Sunday evening performance.

If you still have time for a Sunday Evening performance, you can switch Something Rotten or Hand to God for Sunday Evening, and see Finding Neverland, Beautiful, Kinky Boots, Aladdin, Amazing Grace, On the Town or Gentleman's Guide in one of those slots.

Also, I think Robert Fairchild is out on wednesday matinees

Lin Manuel's alternate goes on as Hamilton for Saturday Matinees

Hah! Just want to commend you on your excellent selection of shows (In early September we see the same ones as you, except for Sunday, when we have to fly home ...and previously saw NPH, anyway).

A couple of additional things we're doing. 
 - Seth Rudetsky's Chatterbox is a don't miss for us on Thursdays, before the shows. (assuming he's in town to do it)
 - Not Broadway, but we're going to a taping of "The Chew" on Thursday afternoon. (of course lots of shows tape in NY during the day - although it may be too close to the date, but it's a thought [edit - I just re-read your request and I see you're coming from NZ, so US TV may not interest you])
...and it's not theater at all, but we're excited about checking out the new Whitney Museum near the High Line.

I know nothing about it, but I checked 54 Below (often has post-curtain stuff) and on Thursday, there's something called "The Fitzgeralds of St Paul" at 11:30.
