But I am truly torn.
I am DEFINITELY seeing God of Carnage. I am looking for ONE more show to add. I come to the city about once a month, so have seen lots of the shows "out there" so please keep advice/suggestions to my list.
Waiting for Godot
Reasons to be pretty
Exit the King
Hair (have already seen it and have plans to see again in August -- but I love it.)
9 to 5 (lowest on my list)
TIA

See REASONS if you've already seen HAIR.
I see EXIT THE KING this afternoon, so I can't say whether or not I recommend it but REASONS is wonderful. And 9 TO 5 is tons of fun.

Posted: 5/6/09 at 9:48amI'm seeing Godot this afternoon, so I can't recommend it yet, but EXIT THE KING gets my vote. It's hilarious and brilliant, and Rush is all but guaranteed the Tony (if you're into that sort of thing).

Posted: 5/6/09 at 10:33amFrom your list easily Exit the King. You will REALLY do not want to miss Rush's performance.
Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco.
Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!

Posted: 5/6/09 at 12:18pmI haven't seen any of the others, but I cannot in good conscience recommend reasons to be pretty to anyone. The monologues were the BEST part of it (that is not saying much...), and those were cut.
