Aww, see Young Frankenstein! It's a fun show, and Christopher Fitzgerald (Igor) is amazing!!!!!! as are Roger Bart and the rest of the cast, esp. Beth Leavel. It's no Gypsy, but I've never laughed more at a show than this one. Really, Christopher Fitzgerald is worth the price of admission. If nothing else, try the lotto. You can't beat seeing the show for only $27.

Gypsy and In The Heights
Cages or wings? Which do you prefer? Ask the birds. Fear or love, baby? Don't say the answer Actions speak louder than words. (Tick, Tick... BOOM!)
