Have You Ever Missed Out on an Opportunity to See a Show? — Page 2

2 huge mistakes

#1- my class went on a trip to see the original cast of the producers and since i had a huge fight with the teacher going opted not to go

#2- my grandma told me to pick between seeing thoroughly modern millie (original cast) or oklahoma's revival...i picked the revival

Are these classes high school classes or college classes? I don't remember ever having the opportunity to go as a class to see a show when I was in either.

Once on Broadway --

I had tickets to FLOWER DRUM SONG ( I am a fan of Rodgers and Hammerstein and had also wanted to see Lea) but the show closed abruptly before we could fly to New York.

Twice at the West End --

Mamma Mia!

I had tickets but had to give them away because my sister who was supposed to go with me fell ill and I didn't want to leave her by herself in the hotel.

Martin Guerre

The opening was postponed and I was refunded for my tickets...Eventually, I was able to see it on its second coming ( the show was revised).


Hey, I took weekend lessons at Alliance Francaise in Manila for two years but they never took us to any theatre shows ( we have an active theatre community here - as a matter of fact, I think a production of Beauty and the Beast has been announced)...We did have French film festivals and occasional lectures/exhibits on French arts and culture... and a Wine and Cheese Bazaar at Christmas time

Yes this is a high school class. Thank goodness we saw POTO with English class...very nice of them.

One that I wish I could make so badly was the recent reading A Tale of Two Cities at the Little Shubert. It all came down to bad timing but still I wish I could have been there more than anything! (So it isn't a show on Broadway, but I've never wanted to see anything else more.)
