It's not current, but I actually fell asleep during "Little Women". Yikes. That one was pretty dull; even Beth's death was boring.

THE LION KING, for me. Felt the same way about the motion picture, though.

I'll say Wicked. I love the show, but I'd been following since it opened and I saw it last October. Too predictable.

Peter Pan was the only show I have seen that I stuggled to stay awake for. Its great for little kids I guess, but I was completely bored.

west end artist, you're ignored. I can't put up with your ill written, no punctuation, no grammar posts anymore.

As that one British lady once said, "Good bye!"

Do the schools in England not teach your proper English?

I saw The Lion King on tour, so it technically counts. The costumes were fantastic, as were the perfromers, but it dragged on in points and I was quite bored.

This isn't on Broadway and most likely never will be, but I also saw Dr. Dollitle, and that was boring as hell.

I'm not entirely sure, but I really think I fell asleep during Oliver Platt's five hour story in Shining City.

Least boring is Rent and Hairspray. Most boring is Lion King and Phantom.

From what others have said on the board, it may be The History Boys

One of the biggest bores for us was Copenhagen - We left @ intermission . The guy next to us did not as he was sleeping thru the first act & was still sleeping when we left. We were not the only ones who left @ intermission

While I enjoy Phantom, I think it's the most boring show currently on broadway. Ballads and arias, while great artistically, can be a drag sometimes. Music of the Night and Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again are the main culprits for me. However, most boring show I've ever seen would have to be Lestat.

TARZAN (Although the cast is great and the music is beautiful the book sucks.)
THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (Boring....just....boring)
RENT (It's a great show but it has gotten old.)
CHICAGO (Although I love the show I feel that this production is VERY overrated. And although I don't like this particular production I'm still going to see it before Rob Bartlett leaves.)
MAMA MIA! (I just don't like this show.)
HEARTBREAK HOUSE (Although I LOVE Shaw I hate this show.)
LES MIZ (Beautiful music, brilliant cast, but the show is waaaayy to long.)
THE TIMES THEY ARE A CHANGING (This show shouldn't of happened. great cast and choreography but otherwise....no.)

Most Boring: Tarzan

Least Boring: The Drowsy Chaperone

I'm surprised that some of you thought that Phantom was the most boring. The Phantom of the Opera has always been a classic broadway show to me. It doesn't bore me at all.
