Can someone help with the timing of a trip? Sept or Nov?

I'm looking to come up for a long weekend either the last weekend of September or the first weekend of November.

I'm hoping to see 'Rock of Ages', 'Hair' and a hockey game for the hubby if there is one. The Rangers schedule is not posted yet and I have no idea how far in advance they schedule games. I'm also really hoping the Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig show will be open. Will 'Gods of Carnage' still be running or is it limited?

Will any of the original casts still be in these shows or will I be seeing a replacement cast if I wait until late September to come up? Any new news about the opening preview date for the Hugh play?

Thanks in advance for your help. Michelle

Re: God of Carnage, it was originally to close on July 19, but has been extended through November 15. However, they are breaking for the summer (no performances) from July 27-September 8. I believe the whole original cast is set to come back after the summer break, which was created to accomodate their other obligations.

The last Sunday in September is the BC/EFA Flea Market. If you haven't been before - it's great fun.

Weather wise September in NY is great but you will not see any hockey. Depending on the week you come you can run into some crazy crowds and traffic paterns because of the UN's opening schedule during that month. The start of November is a little better if looking for hockey but as you get closer to Thanksgiving you start to run into the Holiday crowds and hassles, weather starts to go a little south too.
