My wife and I enjoy Broadway musicals. Can you suggest a great show for Late July 2017...?

Thanks

Phantom Of The Opera. Definitely worth a watch before they close.

Caption: Every so often there was a rare moment of perfect balance when I soared above him.

Donnie -- perhaps if you told us some of the shows you've loved or things you've loved about them, we can help you find something. 

 

So many choices for a July visit.   

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Too late for Hamilton.  They are sold out through July and have only premium priced tickets through late fall, according to their box office.

Shoot for "Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812." Its leads will not have left and it's a delightful show.

I second the Dear Evan Hansen recommendation.

Dear Evan Hansen.  

Groundhog Day got Rave reviews in London.  Wouldn't expect much different on Broadway. 

I would suggest Miss Saigon.  That can't be missed. 

Hello Dolly should do well. 

Not to be confused with Dave19.

if your looking for something a little edgier or dramatic but still uplifting, then Dear Evan Hansen

If you want something like the shows you've already seen, then Wicked or Groundhog Day

Saw Comet today without Groban. Still well worth seeing if the other leads are there. I believe the show's creator will be taking over as Pierre at some point.

If you liked Jersey Boys, a Bronx tale might bode well. 

My father (AIDS) My sister (AIDS) My uncle and my cousin and her best friend (AIDS, AIDS, AIDS) The gays and the straights And the white and the spades

I recommend Great Comet with or without Groban.

A little swash, a bit of buckle - you'll love it more than bread.

Ugh this year is gonna be so hard to choose from!!!

If its your first time seeing a show I reccomend Chicago or Wicked 

If not definitely go see Miss Saigon-its an amazing show thats super powerful OR Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812 its very different and modern and cool
