NY Top Broadway Choices
Here are the New Yorker’s top choices for 2008:
# The Seagull
# Othello (Donmar Warehouse)
# Macbeth
# Endgame (BAM)
# The Country Girl
# South Pacific
# Passion Play (Yale Repertory Theatre)
# Pitmen Painters (National Theatre)
# Gypsy
# Discovery of America (Lincoln Center)
I am kind of shocked that Gypsy is on the list only because there was a revival for this show that ran so close into this revival. For me, it feels like the show never left Broadway. I am also surprised that August Osage County was not on the list. People who have seen it can’t stop talking it. “See it now” is usually the initial reaction. Apparently, the members of the cast are amazing and the show is unforgettable. Have you seen any of these shows?
