"Broadway has been very good to me. But then, I've been very good to Broadway." - Ethel Merman
A new tradition we have begun is to attend a local play every year on Mother's Day. This year we attended Dirty Dancing (at the Pantages in Los Angeles.)
A Sunday evening performances allows time for a traditional late lunch at a favorite restaurant. To remember the occasion, the free Playbill is great memorabilia to collect but the merchandise (not so free) is enticing as well. I buy 1 keychain from the play to enhance my daughters collection. (now over 203!)
So far my top five plays are: Wicked, The Producers, Chicago, Beauty and the Beast, and The Lion King.
What are your favorite plays?
Have you ever seen Rent? I saw it at Pantages a few years ago and it is by far my favorite...along with Wicked.
ReplyDeleteI did see Rent in San Francisco. That one is pretty controversial, you either love it or hate it.
