Hi everyone,

I'll be visiting NYC during the weekend of Easter.

Does anyone know if the regular schedule is affected by Easter?

Also, I would like to ask for recommendations about current shows that are new as of this season. On my previous trip I was recommended by people on this forum to see Sunset Boulevard and I was very happy with the show.

My favorite shows include Once, Hedwig, Dear Evan Hansen.

Thanks!!

The Band's Visit.

What kind of show are you looking for? Are you looking for a play, musical, something fun, etc?

I wouldn’t miss Three Tall Women, Angels in America, The Iceman Cometh, and Once on This Island, My Fair Lady. I think every musical fan should at least see one great play in their theater going career just to give the other side of theater a chance though. I personally find well done plays extremely intellectually satisfying, which compliments the sensual gratification of musical theater.

I am looking a musical (although I do want to see Harry Potter but didn't get a code)

I don't mind if it's on the fun or more dramatic side but I am looking for a good score.

@Dancingthrulife2: you are right I have seen much more musicals than plays. The only play I have seen is The Present, which I thought was not good. I must have not chosen a right one to see. But yes I do want to see a good really good play.
