Re: What Broadway shows have you seen?

Are we talking like, literally on Broadway? Or do touring companies count?

As for the actual district, I've seen:
Les Miserables (twice) 5
The Phantom of the Opera 4
Rent 4
Cabaret 5

and I caught One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest with Gary Sinise (DEFINITELY a 5). After we graduated from high school, a friend and I drove to NYC and just spent the week walking around, seeing shows...it was pretty awesome.

As far as touring companies go, that's a pretty long list.

Re: What Broadway shows have you seen?

Not counting TV tapings... all of my experiences have been at the Ohio and Palace Theaters.

I've seen:

The Producers
Jesus Christ Superstar
Aida
Beauty and the Beast

For some reason, it seems like I'm forgetting something... probably not. I don't get to go see the shows often. Superstar was a last minute free ticket.

Re: What Broadway shows have you seen?

I love theatre, and see as much as I can. Though it is difficult to get to NY.

Broadway:
Thoroughly Modern Millie
Urinetown
Little Shop Of Horrors
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Hairspray 4
The Thing About Men (Off-Broadway) 5
Forbidden Broadway (The one before SVU I think it was Summer Shock)
Wicked (broadway and pre-broadway)
Spamalot
Cabaret
Rent

Broadway National Tours:
Les Miserables
Little Women
Aida
Kiss Me, Kate
Light in the Piazza
Scarlet Pimpernel
The Phantom of the Opera

Little Mermaid - Pre-broadway

Nothing I've seen scored less than a 4 in my mind.

I've seen a lot of shows through local companies, I work technical theatre as a stage manager and in wardrobe so that list is much longer.
