So I have the opportunity to see a show this fall when I go to NYC, as a gift from a parent. Here’s the shortlist of ones I haven’t already seen/don’t already have plans to see that are at least somewhat intriguing to me:
- Almost Famous
- Funny Girl
- Some Like it Hot
- Beetlejuice
- The Piano Lesson
- Kimberly Akimbo
- Gabriel Byrne’s Walking With Ghosts
- Ohio State Murders
- Take Me Out
Out of this list, what would you choose? I have to say I’m leaning a little more toward to seeing a musical (already have quite a few plays scheduled for my trip), but it’s hard to narrow things down!

Out of that list, I would say Kimberly Akimbo or Funny Girl with Lea Michele.

Lea Michele in Funny Girl is delivering one of those rare career-defining performances. The production itself remains a bit of a mixed bag, but her performance makes it an easy pick.
I'd likely also be deciding between that and Kimberly Akimbo.

Kimberly!
