Hey all! Taking a trip to NYC October 13-17. Need some opinions on show selection. Here's what we know we're seeing. Holiday Inn, School of Rock, Phantom, Falsettos, and Aladdin. Trying to decide between Waitress, Color Purple, and Paramour. What do you think?

Of the three you mentioned, The Color Purple would be the one not to miss.

The Color Purple is not to be missed.

I think waitress and paramour would be the most missable of all the shows you mentioned. Have you considered the great comet? It will still be in previews, but it is an incredible show that is absolutely worth seeing.

Haven't seen Color Purple so I can't speak for that, but Waitress was amazing!

Really? Out of the few listed I'd say that Aladdin would be the best contender for skipping. Not to say you should or anything...
