Posted: 10/24/04 at 5:18pmI actually have only seen one show more than once, and that was Les Misérables. I saw the professional version once, and the student version once. I don't live anywhere near places that put on shows, except for a local theatre group that does one short play every year, and one musical every two years. It's very annoying, but what can you do?

Wow, I'm an amateur compared with so many of you, but I've seen:
The Producers 5 times
Cabaret 4 times
The Full Monty 3 times
And shows I've seen twice include: Assassins, Thoroughly Modern Millie, Chicago, The Music Man, ... oh I know there's more but I can't think on a Monday morning.
One show I wish I could have seen more than once is Nine with Antonio Banderas. Loved it!

Posted: 10/25/04 at 11:58amI don't think it's any different from someone seeing their favorite movie a hundred times.

Exactly, TheGaIsSilent. I prefer live theatre over film, so if I do enjoy a particular show, I'm apt to see it more than once (but usually early in its run). There's nothing worse than seeing a favorite which has unfortunately gone to pot (sometimes the result of a long run, and people walking through their part).
I haven't come close to seeing something a hundred times though.

Totally agree Robbie! People should get more! Go see a different show or something, instead of seeing Wicked 78 times. And watching one movie a hundred times is weird too. I've only seen Sister Act 8 times and I think that's a bit odd.
