Travel Broadway musical in December

Have heard decent things about South Pacific. We LOVED Jersey boys. The day we went we saw Victoria and David Beckham and Tom and Katie Cruise with their children. Show was fantastic. We also liked In the Heights which is very "New York-y".
depends on what your taste, do you want something really classic and always good like phantom or wicked, or something new with lots of buzz? everyone I know (and I work in theater) loves next to normal , and I've personally seen in the heights two times, it's that good.
and if you want something even newer but really great, there is fela! , or the more traditional a little night music which just opened and stars catherine zeta jones.

Jersey Boys
In the Heights
Mary Poppins
All three were great! Haven't seen Billy Elliot but it just won the Tony earlier this year for best musical.

We saw Spring Awakening last night (in Los Angeles) and it is really good. I am not sure if it is still on Broadway....
WARNING about Spring Awakening is there is nudity and adult content... May be shocking.
My all time favorite play is RENT but it is no longer on Broadway.

I can be a fairly critical "reviewer" when it comes to Broadway musicals.
I was blown away by the production of Mary Poppins.
There is often at least one performer that makes me cringe, at some point in the performance;but not the cast I saw. They were fantastic, and I would see it again in a heartbeat!

Phantom of the Opera is my absolute favorite, I've seen it 4 times, met the guy who played the phantom before the new guy took over, it's just amazing, I recommend it hands down over all the others. Also right now they're having some kind of sale where the prices are seriously reduced I think it's running until the end of the month or the 15th. I haven't seen too many of the newer ones but In The Next Room is getting non stop rave reviews here. I have no idea what it's about though lol
see avenue Q if you're up for something a little bit racy (but in a very funny way).
south pacific is fabulous, and rarely performed ~ this is the first revival in ages

Hair is fabulous and so is Next to Normal
Here's a "music video" from the recording of the "next to normal" soundtrack

Avenue Q is off Broadway now (but still playing). I love that show - although when I saw it, a lot of people walked out. I assume they were offended.
If you're up for a naughty and funny show, Avenue Q is the way to go. Otherwise, if you haven't seen Wicked and you loved/liked The Wizard of Oz, then that's the show for you.
