I refuse to see anything twice.

Especially since I don't live in the city, I like to see as much as possible. Expand the horizons.

I've never had a desire to see a show twice, either. Except Light in the Piazza.

What a beautiful, beautiful experience (even in the farthest seat away from the stage!)
Personally, I think I have too much bloom.

If we're not counting jsut broadway performances (ie tours) then its Rent (17) and POTO (7)

It its just On Broadway performances then
Rent (15) Wicked (3) and then Hairspray and In My Life tied (2)
when ducks grow thumbs then maybe my opinion will change.

i'm not that impressive i've seen wicked and lion king twice, and 42nd twice, but one was on tour. I don't know why, I hate 42nd street, but... it was a mandatory trip the 2nd time so...

I've never seen shows on Broadway more than once, but if we're counting tours, regional theatre, and other productions I have seen Sweeney Todd 17 times and was in it once for a three week run.

Les Miserables - 6 (tour)

Who cares how many times you've seen a show? I'd much rather see MORE shows than the same one over and over.

That said, I've seen Les Mis, Rent, Chicago, and Phantom 3 times each (though the three latter ones each include a touring production when I was in college).

I'm much prouder of the fact that I've seen nearly 100 shows on Broadway...

Just because there are a few shows people choose to see over and over, doesnt mean they dont see other shows as well.

It's very easy -- especially when you live in the city -- to see a whole lot of shows in one week.

The most I've seen a show is twice. and I've seen them twice because I go once with my family, and then a club or group I'm in takes a trip, so I go again.

I've seen Wicked, Aida, Les Miz, 42nd Street, Beauty and the Beast, and Mamma Mia twice.

Les Mis. I think the count is up to 8 now. I also performed in the show, so that must quadruple the number- all those dress rehearsals and shows...and the tour's coming

Sideshow - 5 times, which is a feat considering it was only in the theater 4 months or so before it closed.

Truly a pity.

I've seen Rent 7 times (only once was ON Broadway. The other 6 times were in Detroit and Toronto). I've lost count on how many times I've seen Joseph & the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, but I've seen many different productions of it. Les Mis comes in at 5 times.

A worked at Mamma Mia for a couple months, putting my number somewhere around 150+, but I've actually paid to see it 27 times. I've also seen Chicago 8 times.

Completely agree with you there! That was an excellent show that should have run much longer.
