What to see?

Posted: 5/26/04 at 7:26pm

I am planning a trip with my parents, and wanted some opinions on what to see. Here is what I have already seen:
Hairspray
Wicked
Avenue Q
Rent
42nd Street
Beauty and the Beast
Lion King
Movin' Out
The Producers

So what do you think? What are the best broadway, or off broadway options, I will be there from june 17-20. So I can go to shows on the 17/18/19th.

Thanks Evereyone!!!

Assassins should be a good choice if you're open to it.

The Boy From Oz is a mediocrity with great performances and a spectacular star turn that turn it into a fun evening.

The Normal Heart is supposed to be excellent, so I second that reccomendation.

You might also think about seeing Wonderful Town, Chicago, I Am My Own Wife, or Frozen.

Go see Match and Prymate, and report back. You'll have the theater to yourself.

I love Phantom of the Opera! It's the only show I've gotten the chance to see on Broadway, since I live far away and am poor :) But, it's an absolutely incredible show and has a little bit of everything. It's a favorite of people I know who have seen a lot of shows on Broadway. I can definitely recommend it!
