Spongebob or Kinky Boots??

Hello!

I'm headed to NYC in a few weeks and I have tickets for Dolly, OOTI, Band's Visit, Come From Away, and Waitress. I have one night left, and I can't decide what to see: Spongebob or Kinky Boots? I have seen Kinky Boots before (with Brendon Urie), and I loved it beyond words. I saw J. Harrison Ghee as Lola and he was magnificent. I just read that he went back in after Billy Porter and I would love to see him again. On the other hand, Spongebob is new. I have only listened to a few songs, and I enjoyed them. I was never a fan of the show growing up, but I have heard good things about the show.

Thoughts??

If you like Scissor Sisters, maybe Kinky. Otherwise, I'd go with SpongeBob.

SpongeBob for sure!

Spongebob

I, personally, have no interest in Spongebob, but I still recommend it over something already seen. However, if Kinky Boots really spoke to you, maybe its worth a second time.

BroadwayConcierge said: "Kinky Bootsis really a show that only warrants one viewing, IMO. DefinitelySpongeBob."

I have seen Kinky 4 times and loved every single performance. I have not seen Sponge Bob.

Still, it seems eminently logical to me that you should see Spongebob. It is new, it got good reviews, it is not yet clear whether it is going to run. Although I think this is unlikely, this could be the only chance to see it. There are going to be productions of Kinky Boots forever...national touring shows, regional theatres, summer stock, colleges, etc. You will have plenty of opportunities.
