I had a moment yesterday when I was leaving Studio 54 after seeing Sunday in the Park with George (check out my enteratinment blog, Pop Goes The Culture, on Blog In The Rough for my thoughts on the production) with Brian. We were discussing the shows we want to see, and I realized just how lucky I am to be living in New York City, the theater captial of the world. I remember being so excited to come to visit the city because it was my opportunity to see a ton of theater. It would be my priority to see as much theater as I could, and I would always try to see at least one more show than the number of days that I was visiting (i.e. 6 shows in 5 days). Now that I live here, I have already seen so many influential, fantastic productions. While I always wish I could see more, and am always thinking I'm not seeing as much as I want to see, the fact that I am able to see any theater at all makes me feel so priveleged!
Then, I was walking through Times Square during my break at Wicked with Ken, and we were discussing all of the new theater coming up this season, and I got so excited and insipired to see more! Here's a list of all of the great shows I will be seeing in the next few weeks, and shows that are opening soon!

Is He Dead? (next week)
