I never had a desire to see Piazza but someone on this thread convinced me...and I actually liked it.
Norbert Leo Butz quotes about John Lithgow: "He's really clumsy. One of the joys in life is to watch a great big huge man totally wipe out backstage. It takes John about three minutes to hit the floor. It's like watching a Great Sequoia falling gracelessly."

Hairspray. Had the backer's sampler cause my ex girlfriend's father was offered a chance to back the show, which he turned down (bet he's kickin himself now, and I was not impressed but my father wanted to see it so I went with him and loved it.

Avenue Q- My friend convinced me, and it was funny...
The key to the mystery of a great artist is that for reasons unknown, he will give away his energies and his life just to make sure that one note follows another... and leaves us with the feeling that something is right in the world. ~Leonard Bernstein~

Jekyll and Hyde. I had heard about all the crap with David Hasselhoff and was less than enthused about it, but I love it!

The Boy From Oz
I went because of Hugh Jackman, but not because of the rave reviews. I went because he gave a good friend of mine an autograph BEFORE the show. It's a strange reason, but it's why.

Rent(It only took me 8 years to discover that I liked this show re: shows that you were not interested in but gave a shot and ...you liked)and Jersey Boys which I saw last night and fell in love with. Ironically, two shows I wasn't so interested in seeing are now two of my favorites. *cough* go see Jersey Boys!!

Assassins!!

The only reason I picked up the CD in the first place was because I had just done a project on Stephen Sondheim for my English class and thought Anyone Can Whistle sounded interesting. However my Barnes and Noble didn't have the Anyone Can Whistle OCR, but I was in the A section and happened to see Assassins, and thought, 'Oh, that's a Sondheim too, isn't it?...' I listened to it a bit on the headphones and bought it on a whim (I'd just gotten paid, haha... money burning a hole in my pocket.) It's been my life ever since.

Lennon. I had no desire to see it, simply because of what I'd heard. I wanted to see a show one Wednesday afternoon, and couldn't get tickets for Fiddler, so I tried Lennon instead. I ended up loving it and seeing it two more times.
