At this point, I’m hoping school plays count. :smiley:

This category was very likely to end up in a rut. It’s limited to one answer per person and it’s doubly limited by being specific to New York City.

Let’s make it “Broadway shows you have attended”.

Oops, if the original was NYC only then mine doesn’t count. I figured it meant “shows that at some point were on Broadway.”

Gonna guess that not a large percentage of thread participants have actually seen a Broadway show in NYC, but maybe I’m wrong about that.
