Hi all ! Well i am all set for my great week in NYC, Dec. 6-15. I thought of posting my list of shows which I already have tickets for and hear your opinions about my choices, seating etc. They are all center orchestra seats. I am sooo excited ! Here I go :
Sun eve BEAUTY & THE BEAST 10th row Mon eve NAKED BOYS SINGING 2nd row Wed eve THE PRODUCERS 8th row Fri eve THE BOY FROM OZ 1st row Sat eve CABARET 2nd row table Sun mat AIDA 2nd row Sun eve RENT 3rd row
I left Tuesday and Thursday evening open for HAIRSPRAY, whichever day i get a better seat from the box office, the other will be my night off theatre or maybe I'll squeeze something else in, deciding on the spot. Any comments welcome, i love listening to you, guys !
sounds like a good week to me! have a fun trip! :)

You won't get to see Susan Egan as Sally since you're going December 6th. She's not performing the evening show or maybe either performances on that day.
Thank you very much, to those of you who took the time to wish me a nice trip ! Now, if only i'll be able to get a single ticket for Hairspray my trip will be much happier ! PJ, i am going to Cabaret on Dec.13 actually and i will be lucky enough to catch Susan Egan. I heard she is brilliant. Of course, my main reason for going is glorious Adam, but a great Sally wouldn't hurt either :)
Well, since my budget is not unlimited and i paid full price for all the shows, if Avenue Q appears on TKTS, i would love to give it a try. Heard many great things from all of you. I thought that, the one day which I'll have free ( Tues or Thu), I will go to TKTS and get what's available between Avenue Q, 42nd Street, Millie, Urinetown and Gypsy.
Wow! How did you ever manage to get 1st row for "Boy From Oz"? You must have paid over $200!! I saw the show on 11/8 and enjoyed it (from much further back!).
You will also love "Beauty and the Beast". I had the great pleasure of meeting the star -- (and my favorite Bway performer) on 11/7/03 -- Steve Blanchard (plays the Beast) and visiting with him backstage. He is a sweetie. I also had the pleasure of meeting David De Vries (Lumiere) backstage on 9/14/03. Another great talent!
I guess I was lucky with Boy from Oz. I paid the normal $100 price and i got it from Telecharge around the time of the first previews. I was just looking online killing time, back then my trip wasn't even sure and when that seat came up I grabbed it ! I figured what the heck, if i don't make it, i lose $100. But now that I am coming I couldn't be happier. It's also right on center!!! I guess i got it because it's a single one, because when I was checking for two, only side seats and way on the back were available !
