If I could live my life again knowing what I know now, then when my parents started taking my sister and I to West End musicals, I'd've begged and pleaded for 'Sunday In The Park With George' at the National Theatre (when I was eight), and 'The Fix' at the Donmar Warehouse (when I was thirteen). I imagine this is about the point my mother would stop letting me choose the musicals. XD I'd also be very interested in the 2003 Chichester Festival Theatre production of 'The Merchant Of Venice'. Anyone who spotted that all three of those feature Philip Quast, well done, give yourself a cookie. There's also John Barrowman and Geoffrey Streatfeild, before you write me off as a single-minded fool. XD

Generally, I try not to dwell on shows that have played within my lifetime that I did not see. I could drive myself mad if I did. O_O I did miss booking for 'Coram Boy' though, which was annoying, and I'll forever be bitter that 'Evil Dead: The Musical' closed a few short weeks before I got to New York last year. I also kinda wish I'd seen 'Journey's End' that week. But no matter. Those are the only three that really bother me; I just block everything else out. ^_^

Unfortunately, I probably won't get a chance to see AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY, at least with Dunnagan and Morton. I wish I had seen AUGUST instead of SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE in February. Though I really enjoyed SUNDAY, the clips I have seen of AUGUST look incredible.

The original production of FOLLIES. I was a teenager and had already started going to the Theatre. I remember calling the Winter Garden box office and finding out they only had the most expensive seats left for the final Saturday matinee - Nine dollars! I didn't have the money. I should have mugged somebody! Updated On: 6/7/08 at 10:52 AM

"Cats! (believe it or not I wanted to see it)"

I believe it! Its not my favorite show, or well-liked on these boards, but as BW fans it was an "important" show that I wish I could have seen on Broadway too.

The OBC of Sunday in the Park with George during previews. I was in NYC. I was standing in front of the theatre looking at the pictures, and I said out loud, "Who the hell wants to see a musical about a painting?"

Side Show
Once on this Island- has become my favorite show, would love to see a revival or even better, but highly doubtful, a movie version

The first time I went to NYC with my school, Light in the Piazza was running and we didn't see it, I'm still very sad about that. The second time, Lovemusik was open and we didn't see that. Those two are the most painful
