I'm looking for some Broadway musicals to watch. Ant recommendations?

Posted by FabioParme Jul 3 '10, 13:15

I wanna see 2 or 3 and so far I'm inclined to Wicked and Chicago. Maybe The Addams Family.

Avenue Q. I've seen it three times, so funny and enjoyable. -- nm - Krusty Jul 3, 13:16 29
- I'm looking for more extravaganza shows. I don't know when I'll return to NY again -- nm - FabioParme Jul 3, 13:20 27
  - Phantom is classic Broadway extravagance. Lion King would fit too, I think. And Wicked. -- nm - ty97 Jul 3, 13:23
  - Fela? -- nm - the liioulu with files (the jewelrymaking type) Jul 3, 13:20 2
    - My wife's english isn't that good. That's why I'm looking for more visual shows -- nm - FabioParme Jul 3, 13:23 1
      - It's a lot of music, so I don't think language is too much an issue. - the liioulu with files (the jewelrymaking type) Jul 3, 13:29
  - Phantom of the Opera? -- nm - Krusty Jul 3, 13:20 22
    - My wife hates the Phantom of the Opera. Dunno why. She wants to see Mamma Mia, but... - FabioParme Jul 3, 13:22 21
      - Wicked was much better than I expected. I only went because I had free tickets but I'm glad I did, great show. -- nm - Krusty Jul 3, 13:24 20
        
        Those shows are very expensive. I've been told there's a place in Times Square where you can buy tickets at cheaper prices -- nm - FabioParme Jul 3, 13:27 19
        
        yep -- (link) - ty97 Jul 3, 13:28 8
        
        Thanks! That's it -- nm - FabioParme Jul 3, 13:31
        
        note: With the TKTS booth, the really popular shows won't be available, but many many shows will be - ty97 Jul 3, 13:29 6
        
        Do they do any type of rush tickets or such at the theaters? - the liioulu with files (the jewelrymaking type) Jul 3, 13:33 3
        
        A lot of the bigger/popular shows are sold out weeks in advance. It's hard to get day of tickets for things like Wicked without paying a lot. -- nm - Krusty Jul 3, 13:35 2
        
        Or turned back tickets? - the liioulu with files (the jewelrymaking type) Jul 3, 13:37 1
        
        That is likely. Worth a shot if you haven't made set plans for the night. -- nm - Krusty Jul 3, 13:39
        
        Wicked is selling out with a week in advance. Maybe I'll have to pay the full price for this one -- nm - FabioParme Jul 3, 13:33
        
        And go as early as possible. The line will get long quickly. -- nm - Krusty Jul 3, 13:32
        
        Otherwise is $76 a piece for Wicked. Ouch! -- nm - FabioParme Jul 3, 13:28 9
        
        Yup. Broadway shows are very expensive. Do yourself a favor and don't eat anywhere near the theatre district. - Krusty Jul 3, 13:34 8
        
        I'll be arriving on August 8 and staying for 10 days. Hope to meet some of you during my time in the Big Apple -- nm - FabioParme Jul 3, 13:36 7
        
        I'll be in England, otherwise I'd come over. - ty97 Jul 3, 13:49 2
        
        I was wondering if you'd be in the area by chance. Stupid England. :-( -- nm - Krusty Jul 3, 13:50 1
        
        Now him I can tell how to get cheap tickets. ;) -- nm - the liioulu with files (the jewelrymaking type) Jul 3, 13:52
        
        Dawson should be around. Znufrii may be in Portland at the time. I never go anywhere so I'll be around. - Krusty Jul 3, 13:38 3
        
        That will be great and Dawson is better be available ;) He is the only HSXeer I know - FabioParme Jul 3, 13:42 2
        
        Ha! He should be around, he's away on vacation right now. - Krusty Jul 3, 13:44 1
        
        Just watch out for mind erasers and irish car bombs. -- nm - the liioulu with files (the jewelrymaking type) Jul 3, 13:45
- Wicked was very good and I really enjoyed Chicago. My gf said she loved Jersey Boys, it's on my must see list. -- nm - Krusty Jul 3, 13:19
