The most times you've seen a show#0

Ok, Maybe this has already been a post but I am curious...


I saw Sweeney Todd on Saturday for the third time, which I think is pretty good considering I don't live anywhere near the city. Standing out by the stage door I struck up a conversation with a woman who has seen Sweeney 13 times since it opened...It's only been opened for 11 weeks. I mean I understand if its been running a long time, and I am must admit I am a tad jealous. But how many times have you seen a show?

Twice and that was because my sister and her kids wanted to see the show and I could get discount tickets. Too many things to see. Being older, I've seen different productions of some shows.

This subject has been posted numerous times.

The most times I've seen a show is 6. However, I live in Florida (college)

People have seen shows like 50+ times; especially some RENTHEADS.

9 times DRS over six months. Not too hard or financially draining if you do lottos, plan ahead with discounts, etc. I think Therese2 and WRQ top me though hahaha Sometimes a show just grabs you and doesn't let me go. I would have seen L5Y off Broadway every week if I was into theater as much back then.

I read something in a playbill article about people who have seen shows INSANE amounts of times...like on guy who saw Rent over 1,000 times....I dunno HOW you can afford that!

i've seen DRS 4 times, and planning a fifth very soon...and it's true...the lottery and discount tickets are a blessing!

Phantom of the Opera- 12
All Shook Up- 6
RENT- 4

Ironically, RENT is my favorite of the three. I blame Matt Caplin for this.
