- Valentine's Day (Yes I know I am a sap, but I love it, it means my birthday is a few days away and double the red wine and chocolate).
- Good Friday (Sounds morbid, but it means that it is Jesus Christ Superstar time).
- Annnnnnd Broadway Flea Market!
The Annual Broadway Flea Market is this amazing celebration of Broadway, Theatre organizations and companies. I try to go each year to find new props, costume designs, set designs, and merchandise. Also the best is when you bump into friends!
Last year my friend Rob was performing as Chaplin in Chaplin. My family and I spent all day shopping, went to an amazing meal at Dopo Teatro, and went to the matinee of Chaplin.
I am so excited to go again this year with the man friend, and hopefully bump into some more wonderful people. My biggest dilemma this year is what show to see! I have the biggest desire to see Book of Mormon, however it is cheaper and easier for me to see the tour in Philadelphia. Half of the fun on Broadway Flea Market day is experiencing the long line at TKTS.
TKTS is this wonderful booth in the middle of Times Square that sells Broadway and Off Broadway show tickets for 40-50% percent off! It is glorious. For example here is what is available at the booth this week.
Based on this list I have my top choices:
- Cinderella - It's been updated, a little more adult, and I am obsessed with Laura Osnes.
- Romeo and Juliet - Ugh my favorite play filled with so many good memories, however I don't want to put Bryan through that torture.
- Annie - One of my littles is in the show!!! I am so proud of Gaby Bradbury for making it into the cast of Annie, and since it is Bryan's first Broadway show it would be nice to take him around backstage.
And although it is not on TKTS line, I really do want to see Matilda and all of the crazy special effects. How high energy was this Tony Performance!
Oh well, countdown has begun!!! 24 MORE DAYS UNTIL BROADWAY FLEA MARKET.
