MJ, Plaza Suite, Take Me Out or Birthday Candles: 4 shows to 2 slots

Hi,

I have 2 more slots to fill in my trip and I'm really in doubt about those four titles (MJ, Plaza Suite, Take Me Out and Birthday Candles) for two last slots. What are you guys opinion about that?

I'm wondering if ''The Skin of Our Teeth'' may be an option, but hasn't opened yet.

Also, would you guys recommend any Off-Broadway shows instead one of these?

I think you know if MJ is the sort of thing you want to see. I won't speak to that because it's not for me. Birthday Candles was pretty bad. Plaza Suite is fine if you like that type of humor or want to see SJP on stage. Haven't seen TMO yet but will be trying to soon.

I would recommend Cyrano at BAM instead. You didn't say when you were coming to the city so that would impact suggestions Off Broadway.

Oh, sorry, I will be in NY from March 30 to April 10.

I have seen this production of Cyrano pre-Covid in London, I guess its the same?

I have Little Shop and Suffs in my list from Off Broadway shows, anything else really Good?

I really enjoyed Birthday Candles. It certainly wasn't perfect - I didn't think I liked it early on but found myself (and most of the audience) crying long before the end. But I found it really cathartic and thought they did a beautiful job with what is a pretty ordinary story.

Skin of Our Teeth starts previews this Friday, so hopefully there will be some early reviews on this board. I'm waiting to see those, as well as the ones for POTUS (which doesn't start previews until 4/14), before deciding on my own last slot for my trip beginning 4/24.
