Hello!

I am headed to New York City at the end of January and I'm already seeing "Dolly!" and "Waitress", but I would really like to throw a play in my mix! What are some plays you would recommend? I must admit I don't know much about the plays now (I am very much a musical person). Thank you so much in advance!

Not sure if you're looking for a drama or comedy, but The Play That Goes Wrong is one of the funniest shows I've ever seen.

Agree on The Play That Goes Wrong. Wasn't sure what to expect but it was extremely funny and very entertaining. Definitely worth seeing.

I didn't care for the above named play, nor did my teenage son - but my daughter laughed a lot.

 

I would reccommend Farinelli and the King.  Mark Rylance is simply not to be missed on stage.
