I'm coming to NY for the very first time for a week at the end of October and I am gonna see two or three shows, I've already seen a couple on tour (wicked, rent, hairspray, POTO) and don't want to see those again (I know you guys are obsessed with Wicked) I want to see some of the newer shows. What are the best shows on the Great White Way right now??

How is A Chorus Line, it looks slightly boring to me.

A Chorus Line
The Color Purple
25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

If you can only see three shows, I would pick:

A Chorus Line
Grey Gardens
The Drowsy Chaperone

My would-see lineup would be:

Avenue Q
RENT (just because I've never seen it at the Neder)
and, probably, The Wedding Singer (before it closes)

well if you dont like "dansicals" then I doubt you would like a chorus line.. i'm just guessing..

I think Drowsy Chaperone
Grey Gardens

If you want a 'big' show, go for Wedding Singer (like I said before), Drowsy Chaperone or any of the Disney shows.

Thanks guys, is Wedding Singer really that good? I've never read anything about it but I'm surprised this many of you suggested it.

I wasn't gonna see A Chorus Line but I might now that so many of you think it's that good.
