Skip Birdie. See Hair if you can get in. Recommend Finian's Rainbow because it is a great show but also has Cheyenne Jackson as the male lead--who happens to be very hot.

i had to google jessie pavelka to see just who he was. i thought "russian gymnast" for some reason.

sometimes people are just too perfect for words. not my type, but i could definitely see how people would drool over him.

hope you meet up with him in NYC!

Definitely skip Birdie. Disappointing production of such a great musical.

God of Carnage has a great cast in a show with a very slight book.

Echo the rave for Finian's and if you haven't seen South Pacific, the current production and leads are ravishing.

Hey. Also in New York this weekend as well. Love seeing all the fit marathon guys and the time change gives an extra hour. Coming from Chicago, you and Justin likely love the no sales tax on clothing! I recommend _A Steady Rain_ unless you've seen the Chicago version already. Skip _Starry Messenger_; Matthew Broderick was still reading his lines from a script at some points last night. I've also heard Finian's rainbow is supposed to be good.

Waydda minnit! You AND the darling partner are having a weekend out of town?!?!?

And you didn't give us any hint!?!?!?!

You devil, you! !

I sincerely hope the darling partner a.) gets to see at least ONE play; and b.) is still semi-coherent and can still walk unassisted when you land at O'Hare!
