HAIRSPRAY is definetely incredible !!!!
But from your list I'd choose BOY FROM OZ for Hugh's sensational performance !

All excellent choices. Hugh Jackman is amazing as Peter Allen. You can't go wrong with him.

Of course it will !!! Hugh's contract ends on September and the show is doing great in ticket sales ! Just check if he gets any dates off for vacation, because i think he is taking another vacation, but i am not sure when ! Last time he was off on vacation, the show was closed for those days !

Have fun, Qfan! I'm going to NYC from April 23-30 so I can understand your excitement! I pretty much had the same options as you (as I posted on another thread) so I'm thinking Boy From Oz and Bombay Dreams, if my budget can afford it. (Right now BFO has discounted $66.25 tickets so snap 'em up while you can!)

Enjoy your trip! :)

whered o you get the discounted tickets? I almost got discounted for assassins if i went in previews

broadwaybox.com for discounts.
Bombay Dreams is on there too at 1/3 off.
It's hard to recommend a show that hasn't even started previews yet, but based on buz, Caroline sounds like a sure Tony contender, but not a box office smash, and Bombay Dreams is totally up in the air. You can search their web sites for more info and see if they interest you.
The Boy From Oz, I think, is better than some critics have reviewed, and Hugh Jackman is everything you heard.
I haven't seen this Fidler yet, but this well known show has a lot of fans, and if you're one, go for it.
