I am going to the city in April and I get to go see a show. I am kinda torn on which one though.
Should I go see
- Spring Awakening
- Les Mis
or
- Drowsy Chaperone
Any recomendations would be great!

Posted: 2/13/07 at 10:54amGo see Drowsy!!!
"Now she wants to know WHY, if I'm so fabulous, I would WANT to take care of her child.....I answer with as much filigree and insouciance as I can muster, trying to slightly cock my head like Snow White listening to the animals. She, in turn, is aiming for more of a Diane-Sawyer-pose, looking for answers which will confirm that I am not there to steal her husband, jewelry, friends, or child. In that order."

Drowsy will not disapppoint! I think Foster is supposed to leave in March, but, as big a fan of her's as I am, it really isn't that important to see her in this show. As long as Level and Burstein are in, the show will be wonderful.

I don't know...if you don't get to NY often, see a show that has a small chance of touring.
DROWSY is easily tourable.
Something like GREY GARDENS or SPRING AWAKENING is not as easy and more unique to right now. I would suggest GREY GARDENS.

"I dont know how you can think they suck."
It's called opinion.
Go see Drowsy!

GREY GARDENS... That way when you watch the Tonys you can say you saw Ebersole's winning performance.
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart; and you'll never walk alone.

Spring Awakening.
The cast is terrific and the music is just amazing.
#23re: Help me choose a show
Posted: 2/13/07 at 6:16pmDROWSY will tour. SPRING AWAKENING is not so easily tourable. I haven't seen GREY GARDENS so I can't say either way, though, I've heard great things. I would say see SPRING AWAKENING.
