Hope fully all of these: A Catered Affair, Cry-Baby, Gypsy, Young Frankenstein, and In The Heights. I'm hoping to spread August, Sunday, South Pacific (I can't find any good seats), Wicked, and Passing Strange over a few weekends between April-June.
On the weekend of April 26th, I'm seeing Avenue Q on Saturday, but on Sunday I have the option of Chicago, Spamalot, and Legally Blonde. What do you think I should see? I'm loving the upcoming cast of Chicago, but I want to see LB while it's still pretty fresh. How is Spamalot?

Not gonna lie, I love Spamalot as a show, but I saw it a week and a half ago and felt like it was really messy for lack of a better description. Not as good as it used to be.

Posted: 2/27/08 at 10:03amI'm going to be in florida most of break, but I will be home for a couple days so I'm going to try to catch Rent, Legally Blonde, In the Heights, or something I haven't seen yet, while I am.

Posted: 2/27/08 at 10:05amGreekmusicalfan: I am jealous of your list, even though I have seen some of those shows (Hairspray, Xanadu, Chorus Line, Young Frankenstein, Legally Blonde, and Wicked). Have fun!

Posted: 2/27/08 at 4:04pmActually, I'll be seeing Billy Elliott and Lord of the Rings in London for Spring Break. Last year, it was Tanz der Vampire in Berlin. We usually reserve our Broadway shows for the summer.

In the Heights, August: Osage County, The Homecoming.
From there, I have to choose two shows from South Pacific, A Catered Affair, November, Young Frankenstein, Sunday in the Park with George.
Probably November and A Catered Affair.
I'm pumped.

RENT, Spring Awakening, and (off-broadway) Blue Man Group...
I'm thinking about going to TKTS while I'm there. The shows I'd be interested to see are In The Heights, Xanadu, and Avenue Q. In that order.

Posted: 2/27/08 at 10:43pmI live in New Jersey and have family in New York, so I go to NYC very often. So it's not like I'm staying for break, I'm just taking the train. However, I'm still going to see Jersey Boys and The Little Mermaid during spring break.

Posted: 2/27/08 at 10:58pmI'm visiting there for spring break, so I'll see Rent.
