I've been to 22 of the 40. The Imperial and the St. James tie for most return visits. I've seen three shows at each of them.

All but 5: Broadhurst, Helen Hayes, Lyceum, Friedman, Beaumont.

Most visited is the Shubert, because of Matilda. Runner up is the Simon, because I've repeatedly seen a lot of the short runs they've had there.

My opportunities to go to New York and soak up the Broadway World ran from 2001 - January, 2012. During that wonderful time I managed to get to all but 3 (and those were missed simply because there was always something else playing at another theater that I wanted to see more). Maybe between now and the time i kick off this mortal coil I'll get a chance to get to those three.

And as I said on the thread that seems to have gotten this thread going again (not complaining)

 

I've been to all of them EXCEPT the August Wilson.  And I'll have to wait for Jersey Boys to vacate as I have never had any interest in seeing it.

Ha! dramamama, I'm in the EXACT same boat as you! The August Wilson is the last one for me as well, and for the same reason. I know someone who joining the cast of Jersey Boys soon, and I'm considering seeing the show while he is in it. I'd be killing two birds with one stone: supporting him and completing my collection of Broadway theatres!

I've been to all 40 as of last year. I keep an Excel spreadsheet of all of my show information so that one day when I am old and can't remember, I am able to go back and piece it all together. I also saw my 100th show last week, which was pretty exciting. I am fortunate enough to have the means to get from CA to see so many great performances.

For what it's worth, they put on a good show over there at the August Wilson. I can't imagine anyone not having a good time.

I can imagine it. Saw the show on tour and did not enjoy it. Seeing my friend in the show is the only reason I would revisit that snoozer.

24.  I had to make a spreadsheet and read thru each theatre's wiki to jog the memory.  I think I got them all.  Not to bad considering I don't live in NYC.

Only 13 for me. But as a Broadway fan, I'm a late starter. I'm still kicking myself for never seeing a show when I actually lived in New York.
