We are visiting New York at the end of May. Have booked Rent and was going to see The Colour Purple but that won't be happening now. What would you suggest we see?

Thanks

Gypsy and Young Frankenstein could be good. Don't know too much about them though.

We have just had Mary Poppins here in the UK.

GET READY TO EXPERIENCE an exhilarating journey into one of Manhattan's most vibrant communities, named "BEST MUSICAL OF THE YEAR" by New York Magazine and "BEST OF 2007" by The New York Times. With an amazing cast, incredible dancing and a gripping story of hope and self-discovery, IN THE HEIGHTS is your ticket into a world where the coffee from the corner bodega is light and sweet, the windows are always open, and the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of music.

In the Heights is a new musical about three days in the life of Washington Heights, a vibrant and tight-knit community at the top of the island of Manhattan. It's a place where the coffee from the corner bodega is light and sweet, the windows are always open, and the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of music.

In the Heights comes to Broadway after a successful run at off-Broadway's 37 Arts. It was nominated for the 2007 Drama Desk Awards for Outstanding Music and Outstanding Lyrics and won the 2007 Outer Critics Circle and Lucille Lortel Awards for Outstanding Musical.

From the same producers who brought us Rent and Avenue Q, and created by a team of New York's freshest young talents, In the Heights is the hip, modern and completely unique tale of a community at a crossroads.
