We are in charge of choosing a Broadway play to see with our 14-year old granddaughter. Any suggestions? She is in NYC with the Joffrey dance troupe for a couple weeks. Any suggestions? My Fair Lady has good reviews.

I have not seen “Come From Away” but I have heard it is wonderful. It is a musical about what happened in Gander, Newfoundland, on 9/11 when 38 planes from US air space were directed to land there, stranding the passengers.
The play was inspired by the book “The Day the World Came To Town.” The story of what happened in Gander is a reminder of the power and beauty of human kindness. “Hamilton” could be a good choice, too. |

And now, my last post posted twice.
Something is going haywire with my posts tonight. The play I was recommending is “Come From Away.” My earlier post about it is around here somewhere. |

So many good shows right now, for a 14 year old, how about School of Rock, Harry Potter and the Cruised Child (very long), Frozen, and if want earn the coveted Grandparent of the Century award......Hamilton.

Thank you all for these suggestions. Someone else mentioned Evan Hanson. My daughter-in-law has seen Hamilton.

She would love Come From Away, Kinky Boots or Mean Girls (Tina Fey). KB would be the way easiest to get tix to.
I found The Band's Visit tedious and A Bronx Tale is closing soon. It missed the mark for me. Come From Away is all the rage right now. Be warned about Dear Evan Hansen: There are some uplifting parts but a lot of sad material and many people cry at times. Some people leave a little depressed. Also, like Waitress, this is NOT the original cast and not thought of as nearly as good in its current form. So it depends if you want a real hard core drama or a fun rockin musical like Kinky Boots, etc.... |
