Posted: 7/19/18 at 8:20pmI’m thinking about taking my nephews to getting the band back together, however I do not know if it is appropriate for them, they are 12 and 13. If there is some innuendos, what are they? Thank you!

Probably not. Check out the first production’s reviews. One character describes his relationship with his friend’s mom, some thrusting etc...
My 14yo daughter has seen everything and anything and would be fine. Depends on the nephews. Personally I’d steer clear if it wasn’t my own kid.

Since this is the 2nd post about taking your nephews to a show (lovely thing to do) wouldn't be easier to ask directly about reccommendations?
Have they seen any other b'way shows? Will this be the first time? What kind of things DO they like? How mature/immature/sheltered (or not) are they?
Off the top of my head, I'd say School of Rock might be a great fit.

Posted: 7/19/18 at 8:51pm+dramamama611 I see u realized that I am stuck on what to take them to. They have already seen most shows like SOR and they have no idea what they want to see. The boys are pretty mature, but the parents are VERY strict on what they can see. Thank you!!

Posted: 7/19/18 at 9:02pmAny disney show, spongebob, Wicked, School of Rock, Anastasia. Personally, I would take them to see The Lion King or Aladdin. Cant go wrong with disney. The shows may not be that great but for kids its a great time.

Ah, I see your conundrum.
Other shows I'd suggest:
The Play that Goes Wrong (not a musical)
Come From Away (a little bit of issue with language, an openly gay relationship)
Spongebob
Once on This Island
Maybe something OFF bway?

Harry Potter, Mean Girls, Spongebob, Play That Goes Wrong, and Head Over Heels(? I don't remember anything to racy about this in SF, but could be wrong)
