Misery, is it worth seeing?

When I found out Misery was coming to Broadway I was intrigued. I know that it is no Pulitzer Prize winning play but it may look that way to horror fanatics. Does anyone think it is worth rushing to see Misery when instead I could see Fiddler, Les Miz, Phantom, Book of Mormon or Hedwig?

Well, since no one has seen it yet, your guess is as good as ours.

The only difference between Misery and the others you have mentioned above (aside from maybe Hedwig) is that the others will not only be around for a good, long while but have also and will also continue being done everywhere and will be BACK on Broadway after they close before we get a revival of Misery, I would assume.

Also Misery is a play the others mentioned are musicals. 

My thought on the subject. A Time To Kill. It TANKED.

I don't think Fiddler will do well, actually.

I did not say this revival of Fiddler would do well, just that the show itself will always be around, so to speak, and will be a much more common sight on Broadway than Misery. 

Sorry if my statement was misleading.

There is literally no way for us to know, OP.

Laurie Metcalf is always worth the price of admission.
