What's On Your List?

For me I haven't been overwhelmed by any of the upcoming shows that have been announced with the exception of My Fair Lady and Junk. What's on your list of must sees that haven't opened yet? 

If the price is right, I would check out the Parisian Woman as well. I do love Uma Thurman. 

The Band's Visit is at the top of my list, owing to the overwhelmingly positive reaction to its Off-Broadway run.

Like CT2NYC, I'm interested in The Band's Visit largely because of the reception it got Off-Broadway. I'm also quite intrigued by the Once on this Island revival, if only because I cannot even begin to imagine how weird it's going to be with Michael Arden at the helm. Otherwise (if I can somehow snag tickets) probably just Cursed Child, because twelve-year-old me would be pissed if I missed it. 

(Though, if it transfers like it's rumored to: Hadestown would immediately take the top spot on my list. I love the music and Rachel Chavkin's direction, and if they get some of the original cast back on -- namely Patrick Page and Amber Gray -- I think it'd be the most spectacular musical of the season.)

So far: the My Fair Lady revival, depending a bit on the casting. A Parisian Woman. Maybe Frozen and Roman Holiday. Let's see how many NYC trips I can squeeze in during the season, though.

M. Butterfly

My Fair Lady

Just booked tickets to the first night of previews for The Band's Visit; that was the only time a NYC trip fit into our fall schedule, but I do hope to make a work trip up there at some point this year (or winter 201 and I'd definitely schedule my meetings around show schedules.
