"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

Ginger I bet I saw that same tour of Aida in Gainesville FL. Just wasn't the same.

Ragtime-I was about eight when my older sister recieved the B'way cast recording, Not being a theatre lover at that age, I wasn't exactly fond of the musical. Especially when my sis would sing along to COFTC. It was only last year that I fell in love with the show (heh. Twelve years, too late)

Bat Boy-Because I am deathly afraid of bats, you can imagine that this musical was not exactly something that I adored. Still, when I overcame that fear (sorta), I began reading up on this musical. Now I wish I had done it sooner.

Just about any show other than Wicked and Rent.

Now, some I have seen as revivals, but otherwise, no.

I've always wanted to see the Ragtime revival.

I got really screwed in 2007 when the stage hand strike happened. I was ready to see so many shows, but didn't get the chance to see the ones I wanted to see - Spamalot, Hairspray, Les Miserables, etc.

I feel strange for saying these, but: Rent and Les Miz. I saw the film version of Rent and really didn't like it, so I didn't think I would like the show. Literally a week after the show closed, I watched some clips on youtube and loved every second. Similarly, I actually saw the original production of Les Miz but was too young to appereciate it (I thought it was too long, boring, and depressing), so I refused to see it again before it closed. Years later, I saw my High School's production and loved it. I unfortunately never got to see the revival, due to absolutely terrible timing.

How to Succeed - I was around for the revival, but kept passing it up to see other things. I kicked myself for not seeing it when it closed.
