When I was 10, I saw my first Broadway Show—Damn Yankees. I was 11 when I saw my second show, 12 when I saw my third. When I was younger, New York City to me meant the walk from Penn Station to Times Square, killing time before a Broadway show, and heading back home after. Since then, I've explored other city adventures, but Broadway still has a special place in my heart. Now, I've viewed a near 40 Broadway shows (none of which I’ve seen twice). I realized Broadway became more of a hobby, and I was always excited to come back home, take my Playbill and place it in my stack of show rankings (yes, I am cool).
So take a look at the Broadway rankings and feel free to share your thoughts!

Hey Brooke, i'm enjoying your blog. What i'm not enjoying is the fact that you've put "A chorus Line" so low on your list. I thought it was good! Oh, and 1776 is also good! How about you show some love for history!
Greg--are you just biased because I saw A Chorus Line with YOU? And 1776? Are you saying that because all it brought to the table was historical information? HOW DOES THAT TRANSLATE INTO A MUSICAL!? psh...
but thanks for reading :)
