off broadway shows this summer

<p>My D and I will be in New York in 2 weeks, and just found out our plans for Monday night have been cancelled. I know most broadway theatres are closed Monday nights, but I was thinking that we might be able to see something off or off off broadway that night. Anyone have any suggestions?</p>

<p>Newsies, Chicago, Mama Mia, Phantom and Rock of Ages have shows on Mondays. Check out TodayTix app :slight_smile: It’s an awesome app because for many shows you can pick your seats, you order through your phone and they deliver the tickets to you at the theater. </p>

<p>Cherry Jones in “When We Were Young and Unafraid” has a Monday show at City Center theater. As does the Tupac musical “Holla if Ya Hear Me”…I mean, if you want something a little off the tourist circuit. (You mentioned off-Broadway.) </p>

<p>Atomic which will be playing at the Acorn Theatre starts, I believe, on the 26th. An absolutely FABulous cast in a 199 seat theatre. Tickets are in the $70 range, a bargain. I know a few of the actors and have been fortunate enough to hear a lot of the music during the current rehearsal period. Go see it! :)</p>

<p>Alwaysamom, wow, what a cast for that show! I hadn’t heard of it yet. Thanks for sharing. My D was in a show recently with one of the actors in that cast, but the whole list is outstanding.</p>

<p>Wow, great suggestions everyone. I’m going to research and we’re definitely going see one of these shows. So excited for the trip.</p>

<p>One of the recent Ithaca grads is in “Atomic” and I hear great buzz about that show.</p>

<p>I didn’t look it up but what about Violet, not sure if its dark Monday or not.</p>

<p>Violet doesn’t have Monday night performances. </p>

<p>Ahh, I missed the Monday qualifier. Atomic will be dark on Mondays, too, but if you can go on another night, go! Sitzprobe is today! </p>

<p>Upright Citizens Brigade has Monday shows, in general (though not on June 30th), if you like improv.</p>

<p>Avenue Q is playing Off Broadway (used to be on Broadway) and if you haven’t seen it, it is a real treat. It is showing on Monday, June 30. </p>
