Tootsie

So you had to add Aladdin to the list in order to see Ferryman? Can't see one without the other?

The list looks good! I personally wasn't a huge fan of Aladdin but by no means is it a bad show in my opinion. Have fun!

I’d add either the Cher show or Hadestown.

I don’t think I would recommend Aladdin. Personally

Correct. My other half has been wanting to see Aladdin for several years and did not want to see Ferryman. We agreed that if we did Aladdin, we would also do the Ferryman. I REALLY wanted to see The Ferryman, so will gladly see Aladdin if that's what it takes.

Fair enough!

If you have the extra space I'd recommend either Beetlejuice or Hadestown.

Glad you’re going to see THE PROM. Saw it two weeks ago and LOVED it. It’s definitely a sleeper hit. I hope more people see it because it’s so much fun. We laughed a lot and had fun. Have you seen Wicked? I liked it a lot more than I expected.

Silly me. I forgot Wicked was still on Broadway. Yes, I've seen that one too many times already. So looking forward to THE PROM.

How about Hillary and Clinton with Laurie Metcalf and John Lithgow? I've never seen Aladdin, and probably never will. It is great that your theatre friend and you compromised.

I loved The Ferryman.

Oklahoma!?

I didn’t see it at St. Ann’s, but that’s the one I’m really looking forward to based on the reception it got...

I don’t see the dates of your trip listed so I’ll limit my suggestions to shows that are already playing:

#1 Fiddler on the Roof in Yiddish
#2 Kiss Me, Kate.

Okay, I see you’re seeing Tootsie so that means Oklahoma! and Hadestown will already be playing. Those plus Tootsie are high up on my wish list. So are a bunch of plays including King Lear, but I’m guessing if The Ferryman was almost a no-go for your bf so would they.

There seems to be a lot of people who sell their Harry Potter tickets, if you had a day to do both.

If not I'd say Hadestown. Gary might be good as well with Nathan Lane and Andrea Martin
