A Chorus Line. Since they were playing themselves, not characters.

I'd give a lot to be able to see the original production of Follies.
I'd love to see the original cast of Sweeney Todd again, to see Len Cariou's performance one more time.
When I think about it, I wish I could have seen all of Sondheim's output in their original Broadway productions.
Also, I am still kicking myself for not having gone to see The Goat when Bill Irwin and Sally Field were in it.

Angels in America-both parts, though not Broadway technically I'd have loved to be at the world premiere of both parts at the mark taper forum.
