I know that t@#r!$t is basically a swear word around here, but I can't deny it... I am one!
In about 3 weeks I head back to NYC for my first time since December 2019. Summer isn't my ideal time to visit, but that's when the Music Man tickets I bought in 2019 ended up after Telecharge finished rolling the dice.
I'm pretty booked with regards to shows, with plans to see:
Potus
Funny Girl
Into the Woods
The Classical Theatre of Harlem's Twelfth Night
Phantom of the Opera
Six
Music Man
Company (twice)
The Little Shop of Horrors
Moulin Rouge
I do have a couple matinee days with nothing booked yet. I was waiting to see if certain shows were going to extend, and/or reports on others opening. I may or may not use those times for shows.
I have booked two sort of tourist trappy sounding walking tours: a Bushwick Graffiti tour, and a tour that goes inside the Hudson Theatre.
I've booked timed entry tickets to see the Kandisky show at the Guggenheim, and the Virgil Abloh exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum.
I've generally visited New York in the fall & winter before, so would like to see/do things that are more summery. I plan to go one day out to Coney Island/ Brighton Beach. I don't think I have the time to go out much further to places like Fire Island, so am thinking of perhaps doing other beach days to possibly Rockaway or maybe Long Beach. I understand for Long Beach you have to pay to use the beach, & have read about using the LIRR to get there. Is it worth it? Or is there somewhere else you would suggest instead?
Is there anything that you, dear BroadwayWorld regular, would describe as a summer essential?
With love, Inception
