Have Music Man Tickets for quick there and back trip. Wife and adult daughter.
Got 2-1 Moulin because they want to experience it (wife again, daughter because she heard us talk)
So have Saturday to see two shows. But maybe only one.
Right now options they mentioned: Six (full price) or Company (2-1). Which would you choose.
If we have time for 2, Any others?
MJ got a Meh response. Girls are not huge Jackson fans.
It looks like nothing new will open by the time we get there.
Looking for show that need to be seen on Broadway.
For instance can't imagine Moulin will be as immersive in the standard regional tour theater.
I am leaning to thinking that Six will be as good on tour as is it on Broadway but willing to hear I am wrong.
Anything else I should be looking at. Already got a no on Little Shop.

Do not miss Company! This is a landmark production of one of Sondheim's best works. Plus, it could be one of the last chances you and your family get to see Patti LuPone live on stage.
Six is excellent too, but like you mentioned, it will definitely tour in a likely exact replica of what's on Broadway right now. Company is very intricately staged and if it tours (big if there), the staging will definitely be different, and it definitely won't include Patti.
If you have Music Man, Moulin Rouge, and Company, you have a fabulous weekend of theatre ahead of you.

I would do Company, The Book of Mormon or Wicked.
Forget jukebox musicals. Six is too expensive. How old are the kids?

COMPANY is a do not miss - and they still have plenty of 2fer tickets.
Even if you sit in the butt end of the mezzanine. The ticket is only $44.
American Utopia might also be a nice, out of the box idea. It’s only 90 minutes and can easily fit before a Saturday evening show (I think they do 5 and 9p)

Company! Patti LuPone is giving the performance of the decade (yet again...) and Katrina Lenk will move you to tears. It's the most brilliant production of the show in history (in my opinion, of course).

Company is great. If you're still looking for another one, have you seen Hadestown?

Company, no question.
