... playing right now, that you haven't seen yet, which would it be and why? And what's your current favorite?
I'm trying to branch out more into Off-Broadway. I've seen most of the mainstays, and a few of the new currents (Altar Boyz, Musical of Musicals, Once Around the Sun), but not much else.

The only off-Broadway shows that I've seen currently playing are ALTAR BOYZ and FORBIDDEN BROADWAY. I despised ALTAR BOYZ, but I adored FORBIDDEN BROADWAY.
I have heard from many friends that ONCE AROUND THE SUN is abominable, though.

Current favorite is Trailer Park (though I don't know how happy I'd be if I saw it nowadays...last time I saw it there was still an intermission and Kaitlin Hopkins still sang 'Immobile').
If I had to pick another one to see, it'd probably be Slut, just because my friend who saw it at Fringe loved it and the new run has gotten great reviews so far. Unfortunately, that won't be any time soon. Why didn't I just drop out of school and stay in NYC?
Hey hey, I'm a stand-by now! Slowly but surely moving up the BWW ladder...

Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

The one I would like to see is Slut. Andy Karl, Jenn Colella, Jim Stanek, and David Josefsberg in one show? Amazing.
The one I love that I have seen is Altar Boyz. Hilarious, love, love, love, love it.

Forbidden Broadway because everyone has been saying it's funny...and it sounds funny.
Blue Man Group is my favorite.

Posted: 9/22/05 at 11:55pmHaven't seen Trailer Park yet, but I did see Forbidden Broadway SVU last week. I think Forbidden Broadway will always be my favorite off-Broadway show.

Posted: 9/23/05 at 12:41pmFavorite off-broadway currently running is probably ALTAR BOYZ. Most looking forward to SLUT as its one of the only ones I haven't seen yet. I'm also excited to see TRAILER PARK again after it opens because I saw it at the begining of previews.
