I'm planning on seeing WEDDING SINGER and DROWSY CHAPERONE (plus Monday Nights, New Voices on the 17th)...what else do you all recommend? I can probably see one, maybe two, more shows.

Maybe Jersey Boys? Hard to get tickets...but you could student rush or do SRO. Altar Boyz?

I recommend Sweeney Todd and The History Boys.
Have a good time!

I recommend POTO, Sweeney Todd ( never seen it, but reviews are great!), or Spamalot. Have fun!

You shouldn't recommend ANY show that you haven't seen.

Go with Drowsy, Wedding Singer and Sweeney.

I suggest Sweeney Todd and The Lieutenant of Inishmore. The second one though may be an acquired taste.

I'd see The Wedding Singer, Tarzan and The Color Purple. On Monday night you can only pick between Phantom, Chicago and Rent i think. Rent is my favorite out of the 3, but any of them are all enjoyable.

Sweeney Todd is fantastic. Go see that.

[folkyboy]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 2:35pm

I second Altar Boyz. It's cheap, fun, and a great show! Plus, you are practically gauranteed great seats! :)

Hope you have a great time!!! :)

Altar Boyz is not cheap, $60 to see 5 people on stage? and a keyboard player? not too cheap.

Sweeney.

Wedding Singer and Drowsy are both very good choices.

Try Sweeney and Spelling Bee as your other two shows.

u should see Rent even though i'm sure u have already, but if u haven't, u should see it because Matt Caplan is awesome in it and he is leaving really soon.

[folkyboy]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 3:59pm

RENT needs to really be leaving soon. that show is so busted and tired.

[kenmarksnj]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 8:46pm

i agree with folkyboy...

and also, come see jersey boys. i promise, you will not be disappointed. EVER.

and you can buy some merchandise from my counter.

Posted: 7/7/06 at 8:49pm

Inishmore!

[little_sally]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 10:00pm

Btw...Altar Boyz is totally worth $60.

[big_girls_don't_cry]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 10:06pm

You should see:

Spelling Bee
Jersey Boys
Sweeny Todd
Wedding Singer
Wicked
Hairspray
Chicago
Rent
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Spamalot

I'd say see-

Altar Boyz (agreed on the $60 bucks)
Rent (yeah, it's gotten bad press here, but maybe a new Mark will brighten things up, eh? I still will always love the show and its message, no matter how crappy the cast)
Drowsy (in my opinion, the best show on b'way)
Jersey Boys (probably impossible to get tickets)
Sweeney

But whatever your interests are.. read up a bit on each show and see what you'd like

SPAMALOT, DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS and PHANTOM OF THE OPERA are my recommendations

[GodIHopeIGetIt]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 10:14pm

Oh, yeah, if Norbert hasn't left yet for DRS.... forgot about Spamalot too.
