Cool Mama...glad to hear it! For me, I never "missed" a show until I moved to NYC. When I lived in DC, I would read about shows, get psyched to come to NY, then make a trip up to experience the show live. Living here, Theater is one of the only positive things about moving from DC. So, when I find something like a show that can take me away from the stress of my job and the stress of how expensive it is, I take every chance I can to take advantage of the show. It's the same as if N2N were to close, I would miss the Goodmans. I like knowing that if I need to feel uplifted (like this summer, when I had the unexpected loss of a pet)...I go to the show and can count on being happy, sad, hopeful, etc. It's only possible for me with the shows that are available at a discount...I wouldn't miss Billy Elliot or Wicked if they left, because I can't afford to pop in and see those shows whenever I need a theatrical fix.
