Oddly enough, I would see Beauty and the Beast and Tarzan before I would step foot in the August Wilson and Shubert theater for those shows.

Jersey Boys, and I don't know if it's considered popular or not, but Sweeney Todd. I really wanted to see this but now I won't be able to.

Posted: 8/22/06 at 8:54pmI'm not allowed to see Q either. My father goes "Until you are of legal age you are not to see fornacating puppets"

A part of me wonders how we're defining 'popular', because people seem to be listing shows that I wouldn't have thought were popular. But anyway.
Popular shows that I haven't seen but want to:
Sweeny Todd (and I won't be able to see the current revival, drrr)
Avenue Q
Spelling Bee
Hairspray
History Boys (and I'm going to miss this one too)
The Color Purple
Popular shows that I haven't seen and have little to no desire to:
The Drowsy Chaperone
The Producers
Spamalot
Jersey Boys
The Wedding Singer
Popular shows I wish I'd never seen:
Chicago
Wicked
POTO

Chicago and Beauty and the Beast....but I plan to see them soon! I promise!
I've never seen RENT on broadway, but I saw it on tour. I have no plans to see it on Broadway.

I have seen all of the new musicals,
so I am pretty much left with...
The Producers
Phantom
Mamma Mia
The Lion King (though I saw the tour in Toronto)
Chicago
Beauty and the Beast
So one of my goals for the coming month(s) is to work on seeing all of those! :)

I haven't see Fame Becomes Me. I've seen everything else I want to see. I refuse to see Rent, Tarzan, or (most likely) Jersey Boys.
I do want to see some off Broadway shows and Broadway playshowever. Ones such as Altar Boyz, (title of show), Lieutenant of Inishmore, and possibly The History Boys.
I finished out my Broadway show list last night after seeing Avenue Q. I must say I wasn't too impressed.
Oh, ps, I went backstage at the Drowsy Chaperone which was pretty awesome.

Lol, most of them! Would be easier to say that I have seen BATB, POTO, RENT and Wicked. I'm trying to get my sister out to see other shows with me (b/c I'm too chicken to go into the city and see one alone) but she can never commit to anything
I have got to find someone else who is into broadway to go see shows with!

I've never seen The Phantom of the Opera and plan to keep it that way. I've heard a lot of the music and I don't like it.
I've never seen Spamalot either. This season, I also missed shows like The Wedding Singer, The Drowsy Chaperone, and Tarzan.

Posted: 8/23/06 at 11:09amI haven't seen the cut-down version but I thought Beauty and the Beast was an excellent show. The Lion King was a little less appealing and Aida really sucked the big one. I have no interest in seeing Tarzan.
