When In New York Let The Lights Of Broadway Shine On You

by albertarticle

Whenever I think of a trip to New York City whether for a
vacation or just a short one or two-day visit I can't help but
think of Broadway and the delightful shows that await in these
hallowed halls of entertainment delight. Broadway is the essence
of New York to me. It can in turns be bawdy, brawling, loud,
rowdy, soft, romantic, comedic, and rip-roaringly hilarious.
Broadway has it all for those who are willing to look for their
perfect fit.

The problem with Broadway is that there are so many wonderful
shows to see and such limited time (for most of us) in which to
see them. I don't even believe those who live in New York City
have enough time in which to appreciate the artistic treasure
trove that is represented within this wonderful city that never
sleeps. The truth of the matter is that in order to properly
enjoy all the theatrical offerings available to you, you'd almost
have to never sleep yourself.

Musicals

It is important to remember that all shows are not available at
all times. Check to see if the show you wish to see will be
playing during your visit before getting your hopes up. On to the
musicals, which are, by the way, my favorite types of Broadway
entertainment. Chicago the Musical, Forbidden Broadway (this one
offers an hilarious 'spoof' of Broadway), Jersey Boys, Naked Boys
Singing (yes, they are!), Phantom of the Opera, Rent, Wicked, and
Mama Mia!

Comedies

Broadway is well known for thumbing its nose at convention as
well as for letting it's hair down and having a good ole time.
The same holds true for the Broadway theatre of today. Comedies
and musicals on Broadway are not mutually exclusive so some of
the hilarity mentioned below will have some degree of song and
dance (well most likely quite a bit of both but you will
definitely laugh).

Let the comedies begin! I Love You, Your Perfect, Now Change
(seriously, that's the name we're already off to a great start on
the road to laughter). Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage
Blockhead (I think someone's been peeking in my kids windows at
night-this one is actually off Broadway but I thought it bore
mentioning with such a catchy title and all). Spamalot. This one
is rising star with rave reviews by critics and a fairly good
attendance rate so buy your tickets early! The Producers, which
was recently made as a motion picture and The Little Dog Laughed
round up my list of comedies. I hope you've seen something here
that looks like a good laugh; I know I've seen a few!

Drama

While many people think of the happy go lucky song and dance
that is often associated with Broadway there is a deep dramatic
flare to the offerings as well. Particularly some of the musicals
that carry with them profound messages about music, life and
love-among these wonderful icons of Broadway are the following:
Rent- a very La Boheme meets modern life musical that is probably
one of the best Broadway musicals I've ever seen and I'm a huge
fan of Phantom. Les Miserables is another Broadway drama that
really needs no introduction, Grey Gardens is perfect for anyone
who fears becoming a cat lady or spinster, A Chorus Line,
Chicago, The Color Purple, Phantom of the Opera (my personal
favorite), and The Vertical Hour (this is a new one let's hope it
lasts).

There are a few family friendly musicals and plays that bear
mentioning among them are the following: Wicked, The Phantom of
the Opera (may be a little frightening for younger children
during certain scenes), Tarzan, The Lion King, Mary Poppins,
Momma Mia!, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and Beauty and the
Beast. You know your child best and what will or will not be
frightening for them or possibly lead to uncomfortable questions
for you, view most Broadway plays with that in mind.

Broadway is a great way to really enjoy what New York has to
offer its visitors for entertainment. While it would hardly be
possible to see each and every show that might attract your
attention it is quite possible to make the time to view the one
that is most appealing to you and it will be quite an experience
for the entire family.
