-The Rodgers and Hammerstein DVD Collection (Carousel, The King and I, Oklahoma!, The Sound of Music, South Pacific, and State Fair)

-Broadway's Lost Treasures Boxed Set

-"Once" DVD (Not Broadway, but kind of a musical)

Later I'm taking the family to see the Sweeney Todd movie. None of them really know anything about the show. I'm excited to see how they react.

My parents mostly bought things they could find in stores, and even if they knew where to look for cast recordings...well, they don't understand why there's a difference between an original vs revival recording/London vs Broadway/cast recording vs film soundtrack. They ask for a list of things they can find and understand and then get things off that list.
The only thing I got that could be Broadway-related was an iTunes card which I used to buy the Young Frankenstein OBCR and...I can't decide.
I generally just buy my own Broadway-related stuff.

Or at least I try
But as years go by
They're sort of haze
And the bluest ink
Isn't really sky
And at times I think
I would gladly die
For a day of sky
