St. Ann's Oklahoma. It's the first time I ever saw any production of the show and I should have watched the movie first or even the filmed national theatre production with Hugh Jackman first --- and then watched St. Ann's production to truly appreciate it more.

Tuck Everlasting or Magic/Bird. Both I was glad to have not paid too much money for.

I saw Deuce several years ago with Angela Lansbury and Marian Seldes. I really only went because I thought it might be the last time we got to see our beloved Angela on the stage. Of course, she's been back a couple of times since and I wish I hadn't sat through that drivel just to see her.

Just remembering you've had an "and" When you're back to "or" Makes the "or" mean more than it did before

Jekyll and Hyde.  After seeing the pre-Broadway productions, what I witnessed on Broadway was a tragedy.

I've seen a lot of junk with some entertainment value to keep me awake but nothing could save these, not even Chita Rivera.

Although the worst I ever saw was THE BLONDE IN THE THUNDERBIRD, I wouldn't trade the memory of seeing it for the world!  In fact, I would go back to see it again --- just to make sure my eyes (and ears) weren't lying!
