DRS most certainly Don't miss it.

I'd go with TCP over DROWSY, but that's just me

Avoid WS.

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. It has a lotto that is one of the easier to win. And it's a great, great show.

Play the Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and if you don't win then play Drowsy. Then if you don't win that than go and get rush for Wedding Singer.

DRS is the easiest of those to win.

Drowsy is the best one to see.

See DROWSY, though none of the shows you listed are among the best on Broadway.

If you can' get tickets to DROWSY, don't settle for vast mediocrity - get tickets to THE HISTORY BOYS, FAITH HEALER, BRIDGE AND TUNNELL, or THE LIEUTENANT OF INISHMORE.

I don't know about their lottery, but see The Color Purple if you get a chance. I know it doesn't get much respect on this board, but it really is life-affirming and beautiful and will stick with you a lot longer than DRS or Drowsy.

No, THE COLOR PURPLE (The Musical) is a mediocre, forgettable piece of theatre.

If you want life affirming, read the novel and see the movie. Skip the "show."

I would see TCP or Drowsy. TCP is wonderful, even with its flaws, and Drowsy will have you in stitches laughing.

I'm also going to root for Drowsy. It was my very first Broadway show and I was with many of my best friends and it was well worth the money. We were all in stitches laughing.
