I'd like to take my almost 12 year old son to CURIOUS INCIDENT. Do you think it's appropriate for an almost 12 year old boy who is going to a one week theater camp in NYC this summer?

Yes Braniff, It is totally appropriate and should be very enjoyable for him!

This is tough: this year alone I saw Cabaret, The King and I, and the Curious Incident!!!! Such amazing shows! I also saw Fish in the Dark which was "pretty good" but of course nothing that brilliant.

The Visit

 

[neonlightsxo]

Posted: 7/1/15 at 2:29pm

Hamilton.

[ZellMorrowsPledge]

Absolutely. He might not understand what is going on but it won't matter because he'll get lost in the visuals

Curious Incident by a long shot, but I'm going to see Fun Home at the end of this month, so I foresee me adding that to my list!

And Cabaret and Simply Sondheim at the Signature Theatre in Arlington, VA.

If I had been in the position to see more I'm sure there would have been more but they were:

1. Hand To God

2. You Can't take it with you.

3. Fish In The Dark.

  Regarding the latter, I know at some point it will be adapted for the screen but I'm wondering if it will be a standard cable TV adaptation or a large format feature.
