Our local theater is having a contest to guess the upcoming season--they are a mix of regional theater and touring Broadway. I think I have part of it figured out, but am stumped on the others. The clues are:
1. a clear bottle of maple syrup
2. a square shaped grid ( 15 x 15 rows) full of single-digit numbers (0-9)
3. Grumpy Cat saying, "I know the answer to the final clue...not telling

Each clue is for one theatre production. I appreciate your help!

It would help if you told us what part you thought you'd figured out and why. If 2 looks like the grid in the linked thread below, it's probably Les Mis. The number "24601" keeps repeating.
24601

1) (the Syrup) Sunday in the Park with George

2) (the numeric grid) Oklahoma

3) (Grumpy cat) Plaza Suite.

There you go, You're welcome.

I ran that grid through my decoding software and it says:

"Kelly"


....but the world goes 'round

The OP is referring to this: http://nctheatre.com/page/guess-ncts-2013-14-season


"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

The grid one is definitely Les Mis, it says "24601" multiple times.

1. Clue #1 Carousel
2. Clue #3 The grid could be Les Mis, but they just had that show. I was thinking "Proof" but not a musical. Tis a puzzlement! so King and I!
3. Clue #6 Presumably, Cats.. or Gray Gardens?

Clue #2 What is the two dogs and the Queen?
Clue #4 is Driving Miss Daisy - although not a musical
Clue #5 - The fancy fork? My Fair Lady?

ggersten, the fancy fork seems like it might be The Little Mermaid rather than My Fair Lady.

And wouldn't it be more fair for you to win the contest without the help of strangers?

Really?

Thanks for the help! I have not seen Sunday in the Park, Gray Gardens, Plaza Suite, or Proof. Les Mis was just here, but with the movie coming out, maybe it's returning. Can you tell me how the above shows match with the clues? Thanks again! Any other thoughts?

1) I saw Sunday in the Park after having breakfast at IHOP and smelled maple syrup on my fingers throughout.

2) the grid conceals the numbers 11, 16, 1907- the date of Oklahoma statehood.

3) Plaza Suite starred George C Scott. He looks like Grumpy Cat.
