Choosing Shows Help

If anyone wants to help me choose between shows, please don't hesitate.

I am going the last week in July to B'way and as of now, I am going to be purchasing
- La Cage Aux Folles
- Next to Normal (2nd time only for d'arcy James)

and I need one more show. I was looking at Addams Family and Promises, Promises. Let me also add that I am taking my parents there, mid 40's. Does anyone have any suggestions? I was looking at Phantom, but I've seen it in Vegas three times and not the full show. I don't know, just any suggestions would help.

Thank you in advance

Phantom is a classic... However, three times in Vegas should suffice. I love Phantom, and I could see it 100 times and would still love it... Adam's family is really funny, but the music is horrible. I didn't enjoy this show... Promises, promises is ok... I agree with mama... Go see the 39 Steps... Hilarious! And a play... which is different than your first two choices. So you get variety!

I am considering ALNM and I got the cast recording. Is it still worth seeing even after Lansburry and Zeta Jones leave? I didn't mention that my parents don't support my passion for musical theatre. So it's a bit tougher to choose shows in any fashion, you know? maybe not haha

"...didn't mention that my parents don't support my passion for musical theatre. So it's a bit tougher to choose shows in any fashion, you know?"

OK, then pick something like Jersey Boys....They'll know the mainstream music and you can enjoy a well-structured musical.

They must 'support' your passion since you are going to so many shows. They just don't share your passion. (So how do you get them to see so very many for you?)
