Not a touring version in your area (although those are fine too), but an actual in NYC, on Broadway, high priced show. It's not really my thing, but I've seen some, all musicals.

I'm expecting a long list from Babalu in here.

Yeah, it's a pretty long list.

Mostly musicals

I'll just name my favorites:

Fiddler on the Roof (original run)

Hello Dolly (with Pearl Bailey)

The Music Man

Bruce Springsteen on Broadway

Oliver!

Maybe I'll continue later.

I saw Les Misérables on Broadway back in 1989.

The last musical I attended was Quadrophenia who took place at The Grove in Anaheim, California.

I, unfortunately , have not attended a lot of plays/musicals (I need to change this), but I have attended thousands of concerts. I have seen "almost" everyone from Neil Diamond to Judas Priest.

Currently, all of the performances are in NYC. I will wait till the show comes to Southern California.

My sister is a Broadway nut, but not me. She must have seen over 100 shows since her teens. I never got into live theater shows.

I only go when someone offers me tickets (like when a friend gave me tix for Bryan Cranston's Network for my bday).

Nope, but this spring Something Rotten is coming to Grand Rapids. So I'm excited.
