items I’ve seen over 60+ Broadway shows here’s everything I’ve seen and what I thought/if I recommend them
I’ve seen Hadestown 4 times and it still gets me everytime. I think this is a great show to take anyone too, the show is fantastic
Hadestown
Cabaret is amazing! I think this is definitely the kind of show you want to bring someone who loves and appreciates theatre too instead of someone who just wants to see a show. It’s a heavy plot but it is such a fantastic show
Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club
Hamilton is the show that got me into theatre and I cannot say enough nice things about it. The history, the songs, it’s truly a captivating show I would see it so many more times over and over again
Hamilton
I’ve seen Aladdin 4 times, and it is such a spectacle! Everything is so flashy and show stopping and it truly is a show for all ages. I’ve seen it from multiple different angles and enjoyed every second every time
Aladdin the Musical
The outsiders was my favorite book growing up and I was very excited to see the musical. It sticks with the story pretty well while also changing some things up to keep new and old fans on their toes!
The Outsiders
This is the funniest show I’ve ever seen and I recommend it to everyone! Small theatre, funny show, some interaction, it’s amazing
The Play That Goes Wrong
