I've seen Dear Evan Hansen and the Great Comet and was very much underwhelmed.  I also saw Falsettos which I loved and very glad for their Tony recognitions.  A week before Tony weekend I have tickets to Groundhog Day, Come from Away and Miss Saigon (which I have seen in London).  I'm also seeing Charlie and Anastasia despite the lack of Tony love, not exchanging them for anything!

I'm trying to be a little more financially conservative this year so for the most part am only seeing the musicals. 

So far I've seen:
Hello, Dolly
Dear Evan Hansen
Come From Away
Great Comet (from lousy seating)
Bandstand
War Paint
The Play That Goes Wrong
Holiday Inn (through Broadway HD)

Before the Tonys I have tickets for:
Great Comet (from good seating)
Groundhog Day
Miss Saigon
Anastasia

I'm bummed to have missed Falsettos... I've been holding out hope that PBS will air it before 6/11, but I know that's unlikely.

That would be a very loose interpretation of "Fall."

There is a today tix online lotto for this show still. Probably hard to win since most of the shows are sold out but it's worth a shot if you're in the area and want to see it.

Seen: Great Comet, Dear Evan Hansen, Come From Away, War Paint, Oslo, A Doll's House Part 2, The Play That Goes Wrong, Jitney, The Little Foxes, The Glass Menagerie.

Ideally in the next few weeks I'd like to see Sweat and Indecent, and potentially Hello, Dolly! if I can get myself up early enough to try for standing room. 

I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

By the Tonys, I will have seen everything nominated except The Present. If only Janney had gotten in instead of Blanchett, this could have been the first year I saw every nominee. Last year, I also missed just one nominee, also for Best Actress in a Play--Laurie Metcalf in Misery. The completist in me is slightly devastated.

Just Great Comet and Front Page for me. Just bought my ticket for DEH in November ($200 for mid-mezzanine! That's the most I've ever paid for a theater ticket) and also plan to see Hello Dolly, Come from Away, Miss Saigon, and Groundhog Day on that trip. I'd also like to see Sweat and Indecent but I doubt either of them will last until November.

None.  I have no trips planned to New York City.  For my only visit to New York City this year, I saw Othello, the Remix and The Color Purple - neither were eligible for this year's Tony Awards.

(I did see Miss Saigon, Charlie & The Chocolate Factory and The Play That Goes Wrong in London in 2014, if that counts).

Thanks, but I no longer live in NYC, already have shows booked this weekend, and am on vacation next week, so no real opportunity before it closes. ;-(
