What do you think is the most boring show currently on Broadway?
What's with the negativity??? And I don't think anything currently running is boring.

Spamalot
The Lion King. I know everybody loves it but after the first five minutes where you think "oooh what innovative costuming" I felt it was a massive snorefest. I found myself about to nod off several times and felt awful...until I saw the woman behind me wake up during intermission and the man two seats to my left get elbowed to wake up by his wife in act II.
I can't believe that i agree with ZONACE! I also agree about TLK. Ugh.

Phantom and/or Sweeney. ("Sweeney Todd boring? Are you kidding me?" No, just the music bores me. Plot-wise, it's plenty thrilling.)

ok never speaking to you again
Just because I don't want to say anything negative about any show, I will list the shows currently on Broadway that WERE NOT boring to me:
-Rent
-Jersey Boys
-The Wedding Singer
-Wicked
-Chicago
-Hairspray
-Mamma Mia
-Spelling Bee
I think that RENT is the least boring show. It is filled with energy.
Hey, I said it is NOT boring, I love Rent, I've seen it 5 times on Bway and once on tour.
Haven't seen all the shows on Broadway currently, but I wasn't bored with any that I saw, which were DRS, RENT, Sweeney, Spelling Bee...and sadly the other ones I saw are closed now (mainly LitP)

Rent is over rated and can be sleep inducing!

None of the shows on Broadway right now have bored me. The only one I've actually had trouble keeping my eyes open in was the Fiddler Revival.

The Wedding Singer and most of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.
The Producers.

^Definately agree with you there...it knows how to drag in the oddest places.
Ahh for once I agree with Muscle the Lion King was soo boring.
I had trouble staying awake during the Fiddler revival too...both times I saw it! (had to go back to see Rosie)
I have fallen asleep at Phantom both times I have seen the show. And was rather bored at Spamalot (but I am not a huge Monty Python fan).
Rent has places that the show drags on as well, but I did stay awake both times I saw the show.
