I would've loved to have seen Michael Crawford's final performance in Phantom.

And also the final OBC performance of Rent.

Well, I tried my best to see the final performance of Cats on the West End in London... but missed it by 3 days.

Les Miserables, most definitely, and CATS as well, being that it's the longest running Broadway show.

definately L5Y, OBC of Rent, OBC of DRS (wait, I'm going to john Lithgow's last performance; never mind), and Crazy For You

was at the Les Mis last performance. So good!!! totally worth staying in cancellation line for 3 hours.

<--- the set of A Midsummer Night's Dream that I was assistant stage manager for during the 2007 season at the STNJ outdoor stage.

No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

Two of my friends were actualy in the final performance of Les Miz. They had auditioned because they were in the student version, and were selected to be in the final performance. I heard it was fantastic. Anyway, that would have been one that I wanted to see along with Miss Saigon. It is weird that more people haven't mentioned that.

It was 6 hours, I don't even like to have sex and eat bacon for 6 hours.

Actually, I also would have LOVED to see Ethel Merman's final performance (and also the show's closing) of Hello Dolly! in 1970. My friend Barry was there and he said it was magical.

jimmirae --- I can't believe nobody else picked up on your Irene Ryan choice. Your a sick puppy for sayin' it!

I'd have to go with Ethel Merman's final bow in Gypsy.
