What shows currently running on Broadway use a nice amount of Strobe lights/fog, or even lasers?

I would think that The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time uses the most lights in productions that I've seen over the past year. I'm not sure if you could say all the lighting is "strobe", but it is unique and a highlight of the play. I've even heard people say that depending on where you sit you can a different view of the lighting and illustrations being projected.
The only one I can think of off hand that had a lot of smoke was Aladdin. This might definitely be just my opinion because I was seated in the second row.

Hedwig and the angry inch, some of their strobe lights face the audience...

Other Shows I'm pretty sure use fog-
Finding Neverland
Something Rotten (soothsayer alley)
Fun Home (pretty sure in the TV scene)
Wicked
Not sure about:
Book of Mormon (the hell dream?)
Lion King (I feel like it's used throughout the show but I haven't seen it recently enough to remember)
On the twentieth century? Not sure if they use it for the train...
Hope this helps!

Almost every musical these days will use a hazer to add at least a subtle amount of atmosphere to the lighting design, even if they aren't using any specific fog/smoke effects. I can't think of any that I've seen in recent years that has not.

Gentleman's Guide has a moment with lights, can't recall if it was an actual strobe.
