I am vising NYC this weekend. I already have a ticket for the Elephant Man on Friday night, but I am looking for suggestions for Saturday Matinee and Saturday evening shows. I have narrowed my choices down to: Beautiful, Curious Incident or On the Town. I would mainly be seeing Beautiful just to catch Jessie's performance before she leaves the show. I've heard great things about Curious Incident. Any suggestions or other recommendations?

On the Town is absolutely delightful, I've been recommending it to pretty much everyone. Also, enjoy Elephant Man, I saw it on Tuesday and it was excellent. :)

They may all be great choices, but the two I'd most recommend are Beautiful (which I've seen and LOVED) and On the Town (which I haven't seen, but could probably use some help at the box office).

Out of the shows you listed, I only saw Beautiful, which I enjoyed. There is some great music, and Jessie Mueller is great.

Thanks for the advice. Now I'm also considering You Can't Take it With You.

Well, You Can't Take It With You is an excellent revival, but I wouldn't choose it over Beautiful, Curious Incident, or On the Town. Those three are just not to be missed, in my humble opinion!

Not sure if you set your shows yet but as of now Beautiful is pretty much sold out both performances with limited seats at premium prices so your safe bet if you plan on trying for discounted tix (around $89) would be to see Curious and OTT.
Both are excellent choices.
