I have a whole week of Broadway planned and I have one or two last slots to fill for next week. What would you choose between: Shucked, Peter Pan Goes Wrong, Some Like It Hot, The Strange Undoing of Prudencia Hart, or seeing Sleep No More for a second time?
I love Alex Newell but I'm not sure if the rest of Shucked appeals to me. I don't mind corny jokes, but I've heard the songs are dull? I saw Mr Saturday Night last year and I found the jokes fun for the most part, but the story elements were meh and songs were just a drag, and I'm worried this would be similar.
I've seen the filmed version of Peter Pan Goes Wrong so I initially counted this one out, but I've been rethinking that because I do think it might be fun to see some of the original cast, and I found out the filmed version is about an hour shorter so there will be material that I haven't seen.
I've listened to some songs from Some Like It Hot and wasn't enthused by them, but I'm not counting it out. I might wait to listen to more when the album comes out at the end of this week.
I know nothing about The Strange Undoing of Prudencia Hart but I usually like immersive-y experiences.
And then my backup is just seeing Sleep No More again. I know I liked it, so it's a safe choice, but it's also more expensive than everything else in my list since I'm planning to TKTS/lotto/rush them.
(New York, New York is also a possibility depending on the early reviews)
