As for the shows here is the lowdown on each of the shows you listed, then I’ll give you my top list. For ones that I’m unsure about, I’ll leave out…
9 to 5: The musical = comedy, based on Dolly Parton music

Avenue Q = comedy, adults ONLY, they use puppets, kinda cool

Bye Bye Birdie = teen comedy, brand new (previews begin in sept.) revival, John Stamos is in it, it looks very good, limited performances so see it soon

Chicago = been around for a long time, can definetly get them half price, seen the movie, it’s similar

Hair = supposed to be amazing, revival, a classic with oldies type music!

In the Heights – latin type music..great dancing

Little Mermaid – awful, dont waste your money please. it was dreadfully boring!

Mamma Mia! – comedy, great ABBA music!

Mary Poppins – comedy i loved it though, great sets,costume, music and overall performace!

Next to Normal – similar to music of RENT, very current music, great for your age group!

Radio City Music Spectacular: The Rockettes – the christmas show? thats the only one i’ve seen – not sure about this one?

Rock of Ages = 80′s rocks anthems, not pop-type show tunes

Shrek the Musical = comedy, great performances by the main guys, if you enjoyed the comedy from the movie, you’ll enjoy the play

So, as for my top list….
1. WICKED! – I am obsessed with this show, the music, the cast, the story. If you can get tickets, GO see it NOW!!
2. Billly Elliot
3. Mary Poppins/Lion King
