show reconmendations in NYC?

DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRALS.

---

1. Sweeney Todd is a MUST SEE. It's unlike anything you'll experience on Broadway. A brilliant revival of what is arguably one of the greatest musicals of the 20th century.

2. The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee- good if you want a fun evening. Really funny, quirky, smart and thoroughly enjoyable.

3. Avenue Q- not to everyone's liking, but it's a funny, smart, enjoyable show. Very quirky and witty. I loved it.

4. I'm not sure when the show ends, but if it's still on when you visit NYC, you should check out "The Threepenny Opera". It's a very unconventional show, and far from flaweless. But it's one of the most thrilling experiences I've had in the theater this year.

YEah i was gonna say Spelling Bee or Sweeney but last time i reccomended those, I got in trouble...

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels!

Sweeney Todd Synopsis: Based on the 19th century legend of a London barber, who is driven to crime when a malevolent judge takes his wife and child from him. His plan for revenge includes a cut-throat partnership with Mrs. Lovett, an enterprising businesswomen, who is soon producing the tastiest meat pies in London.


Jersey Boys Synopsis: Based on the life story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons: Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito and Nick Massi. The musical chronicles the lives of a group of blue-collar boys from the wrong side of the tracks who became one of the biggest American pop music sensations of all time. It's not your typical jukebox musical--it's more of a rock biography that shows the group's ups & downs through the decades (big hits, women troubles, betrayal, death, etc). Great story & amazing cast! It rocks!

1. DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS
2. AVENUE Q
3. SPELLING BEE
4. THE DROWSY CHAPERONE
5. SWEENY TODD
6. DOUBT
7. THE COLOR PURPLE
8. BASED ON A TOTALLY TRUE STORY

Those are the best 8 shows I could reccomend for any tourist coming to NYC for your first time. Such a flavor and taste in there - picking any of the above 8 you wouldnt go wrong.

I wouldnt spend any money on:

1. CHICAGO
2. RENT
3. BEAUTY & THE BEAST

They at one time may have been great shows, but all three are past their prime and could possibly be a let down after all the hype you've heard.
