"I still wouldn't go see this garbage even if it was like $30"

I would rather pay full price for White Christmas than pay $30 to see a 13.

White Christmas without a doubt. I just wish I could go back to NY to see it at least two more times. Jeffry Denman is fantastic doing "I Love A Piano". The whole cast is great.

No, I don't work at 13.

For those who wanted me to elaborate... pretty much the same reasons dramamamma said with out the sarcasm.
It is closing and the chance of being able to see it again is very unlikely.


You should really form your own opinion about it.

Ti's the season! re: Should I see 13 or White Christmas? So I say, White Christmas.
13 "might" tour, since it's been rather successful, so go for the one that fits the mood this time of year...I hear they have some cool special effects...re: Should I see 13 or White Christmas?

You know...

'13' is about a Jewish boy.
'White Christmas' is about a Christian holiday.


You may relate to one more than the other.

Uh...?
WOW2...Jewish boy, NOT Jewish holiday...there's a difference. If it had been about Hunikah, I would say, depends wether you are Jewish or Christian...well, NOT really re: Should I see 13 or White Christmas? I like learning about others' world as well, so it depends mostly on which is the better production...

I'm not making an analogy.

If you celebrate Christmas you may not so much understand it more, but relate to 'White Christmas' more.

If your Jewish you may know more about a Bar Mitzvah, and all in all get some of the jokes in '13' more.


It's not an analogy, I'm just saying.


I'm not making any opinions, I haven't seen 'White Christmas' yet and I want too, so as far as the better production I'm not making any comments.



And, I have a job.

well "13" is a load of crap and "White Christmas" is good, quality, clean, refined, fun, entertainment.

simple as that

it's the holidays for christ sakes (no pun intended) -- where's your winter spirit and cheer??

charleston couldn't help but notice that all the adjectives you use to describe 13 have a maximum of four(4) letters. you know they do have on line dictionaries.

Wow, I thought this would be a lot closer of a vote, but it seems like WC is blowing 13 away. I was hoping the music in 13 would be good enough to get a few people to stand behind it. I havent seen either musical, but I was thinking of trying out 13. Now, I am thinking of giving WC a shot. Originally WC looked a little too corny for me, in the way that Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was corny... (I do enjoy the overly wholesome shows like Millie and Mary Poppins, but something like 42nd st. is a bit much.) Does White Christmas offer student or rush tickets?


I'd rather be reckless than rockless.

Having seen both, if I was 13, I would much rather see 13. Yes White Christmas is pretty to look at, but had I seen it at 13 I would have been bored out of my mind.

I did enjoy both shows for what they each are... I guess it depends on if you're in the mood for a sort of idealistic holiday show or a more realistic-type show. It's really hard to compare the two.
