I was wondering what which of these shows would be a shame to miss when Im in this city. Im seeing others but hoping to fill out a bit of my time with some of these. If you could be so kind to rank them. Thanks

The inheritance parts one and two
Oklahoma
To kill a mockingbird

be aware of the cast changes that happen for TKAMB in early November https://www.broadwayworld.com/article/Taylor-Trensch-Kyle-Scatliffe-and-More-Will-Join-TO-KILL-A-MOCKINGBIRD-20191003

I have high expectations for Nick Robinson and the rest of the new cast, but since they will be settling into performances, I would go with The Inheritance

1: Oklahoma. For me this is a must see. The cast is phenomenal, and not just the leads. In many ways the supporting cast is even better and more compelling. It's probably the first show that I wanted to see again immediately after curtain. It's closing in January so fit this one in

2: To Kill a Mockingbird. The cast is changing out so who know how it will change, but the show is superbly well done. And the new cast are no scrubs so you can still expect high caliber performances. It is going on tour so you may have more opportunities to see the show itself if that's all you need.

3: The Inheritance. So, I haven't see this one, but the buzz has me very interested. But it's two parts so that would eat two slots which makes is a bit of a sacrifice to see.

4: Mean Girls. You've seen it already, see something new. There are so many great shows, why sit through this again? Unless you liked it, in which case... I mean, that's cool, we've all got different taste. :)

1. Oklahoma 1000%
Fantastic production and it's closing Jan 2020. I'm not into classics but this contemporary reinterpretation made me a big fan. The music is awesome and Circle in The Square is a unique and intimate theater if you never been.

2. TKAM
OBC will have left and they have big shoes to fill but the production and writing is great regardless abd will carries itself without big name cast. I was surprised at how dynamic a play could be with the staging, changing sets and music.

3. Inheritance
I was looking forward to this but have heard mixed reviews in other threads. I think it will be dependent on you back ground and appeals more towards younger queer community. Seems most of the criticism is from older gay men that have already had other plays, films etc. of this kind that were let down.

4. Mean Girls
Since you already seen, unless you are aching to see Renee's Regina I'd pass for something new.
