It is the hot ticket in London, and now it’s opening this month on [Broadway](http://www.groundhogdaymusical.com/?gclid=COSLk5LHutICFcmFswod8QsABQ). Seeing the [commercial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3bgErV1zMs) had me doing my Happy Dance, and I can hardly wait to see the show!

I wish shows played on Monday. I’m going to be in NYC at the beginning of September but the only time I would be able to go would be Monday night. Guess I’ll wait til it comes to Chicago.

As much as I love Tim Minchin, I gotta say the obvious choice for composer of this show is Phillip Glass.

Enjoy,
