What would you want to be a part of it?

I say the helicopter from the original Broadway production of Miss Saigon.

The "Thank You Jonathan Larson" plaque that sits backstage at the Nederlander

And an exhibit of the costumes from Taboo.

"At the opening night party, they had clowns on stilts, jugglers, a chocolate fountain, popcorn, hot dogs. [My son] looked at me like I had been holding back. Like, 'This is what you do?' I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell plus i proudly share the title of the shortest member over the age of 10 with wickedrentq!

Seriously, definitely the plaque from RENT... and costumes from really early stuff, like Oklahoma! or something.
