Okay, I just realized who was asking the question. You are 14 right? Your parents might not want you to see that particular show.

In that case, Wicked is awesome, Billy Elliot is also very good but it can be hard to get tickets for it right now. The classics are always fun to see too- The Phantom of the Opera was the first show I ever saw and I go see it every couple of years now.

Jen, don't worry, I want to see La Cage really bad, I like Kelsey Grammer. Also want to see Addams Family, has anyone heard about Promises, Promises or Fela?

'Promises, Promises' is a revival of the original Burt Bacharach / Hal David show from 1968. Book by Neil Simon. (who knew!)

Songs -- 'Never Fall in Love Again' and the title song were hits in the day...

Also, Jerry Orbach won the Tony for Best Performance in a Musical. Yes -- Lumiere from 'Beauty and the Beast'!

Kristin Chenoweth and Sean 'Just Jack' Hayes are starring in the revival

Like 21 Guns, but the set up and the plot look to punk for me!

Well, it certainly really good and the guy that plays Zaza/Albin is freaking amazing!

I thought of another one you might like..Next to Normal. It is also very good.

I love Kristen Chenoweth. I also saw Phantom in 2005 and loved it. But I love Phantom anyway
We also saw The Lion King on our 2007 trip and thought it was amazing.

Jersey Boys, South Pacific, In The Heights, Mary Poppins, Avenue Q (now off-Broadway).

It was announced yesterday that Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe will be returning to Broadway in 2011 to star in a revival of "How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying."

This is a musical. I didn't know he was a singer.

I would agree with Rsey in seeing In the Heights, Jersey Boys or Mary Poppins. All really good musicals. And, of course, Wicked is awesome if you haven't already seen it.

yes Les Miserables is a favorite as well! you only have to look at my name but is it still playing, i don't think it is. But Mary Poppins is a must, I hear great things from In the Heights. I would love to go see Addams family and apprently Shrek the musical is wonderful from all my friends who have seen it.

I saw Wicked, wasn't that amazed by it, my favorite musical of all time is 9 to 5 (I know, a weird choice)

In the Heights looks good

Anyone that want to see ADdams family or Xanadu needs to go to broadway.com and watch Jackie Hoffman's addams family blog, funniest thing in the world!
