Hoping for some help in choosing a show! I'll be in NYC for a week in January seeing a bunch of shows and I messed up the closing date of Lehman Trilogy, which is a week earlier than I thought. Looking for a show for the Wednesday night. I don't have strong feelings for any of them.

Possible options: Doubtfire, Hadestown, Little Shop of Horrors, MJ, Moulin Rouge

Currently have tickets for: Assassins, Six, Trevor, Music Man, TKAM, Jagged Little Pill, Caroline, Flying Over Sunset 

I've seen most of what else is playing, either in NYC or London (Harry Potter, Hamilton, Wicked, Company etc.). Thanks!

While I can't speak for Doubtfire of MJ (besides the fact that I have seen neither and have zero interest in either), I will say that you can't go wrong with Hadestown, Little Shop of Horrors, or Moulin Rouge! All three are very solid shows.

Little Shop of Horrors or Hadestown. Those would be my two suggestions. I’ve heard great things about To Kill a Mockingbird but I haven’t seen it yet.

I would recommend:
Hadestown, Little Shop or Mockingbird. All three are top notch.

My pick would be Little Shop of Horrors as it looks like its last performance is that week on Jan 9th.

I've heard good things about Thoughts of a Colored Man in case you want to see another play.

Thank you all! I really appreciate the input, it made the decision so much easier. Since every post mentioned Hadestown and Little Shop, I flipped a coin between the two and I'm going to see Little Shop! I do have a ticket to Mockingbird, which I'm very excited about too.

MJ has several Monday evening performances scheduled for January.
