Well....I am only 12 so I cannot be expected to have seen tht many Broadway shows (although if you counted off-broadway and other types of shows, I'd have such a long list!) Well, here goes: Wicked Avenue Q (yes, I saw that!!!) In The Heights Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (well, ****ty ****ty bang bang in my opinion) 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee Rent The Drowsy Chaperone Gypsy (I love you, Patti LuPone!) The Lion King (I THINK) Hairspray (I THINK) Mama Mia (I THINK) .....and maybe some things I forgot. Well, that's my list!
btw, the (I THINK)s are because I saw those shows when I was REALLY young (like tiny!!!) So I am not positive if it was on Broadway.

For over ten years now, my old Playbill collection has been in San Francisco (I lived there for a while, but when I moved, I left them in storage there). I just got them back (thank you Post Office and, If It Fits It Ships) and am very excited to be able to update my list on this thread. Stay tuned. I'm sure there are a few more to add to my collection of Broadway musicals.
