Hi Everyone! I am going on my spring break trip to New York in just about two months and I need all the advice I can get! I am seeing Grease on a Thursday in row G and could not be more thrilled!
Any advice you can give me on New York, going to see plays ( I want to see Legally Blonde but am going to have to go the day of and get the cheap tickets, grease broke me) and getting autographs after the show would be greatly appreciated!
~Kristen

I HIGHLY recommend The Little Mermaid, the music is awesome and all the flourescent fish and scenery are amazing. I really loved it. Sierra IS Ariel, she portrays her perfectly! Anytime I am in New York I usually just grab pizza from Sbarro and M&M's from the M&M store to snack on during the show. It's nice and cheap but if you're looking for a restaurant, one of my favorites is Planet Hollywood, kinda expensive, but a really neat experiance. I haven't gone to the stage door yet, but from what I hear it is worth it.

Depends on what you wanna do. I can give you a rundown of my top 5 favorite restaurants (On that list is 1 upscale place, 1 fast food place, 1 award-nominated street corner vender, 1 tourist attraction, and 1 affordable theater district eatery). I can give you a rundown of the things you MUST see in NY.

there is all of the information on student rush, lotto seats, and standing room for every show

if i were you...i would attempt doing the lotto for wicked. it is by far the greatest show up right now! a lot of people enter the lotto for such a few number of seats...but hey...you never know unless you try smile.gif

legally blonde is also awesome and you can student rush it for very cheap

they update the page randomly...so don't forget to look at it right before your trip

hope this helps! have i hope you have a blast at grease! it's so much fun...it really is a rock concert smile.gif

Close, but no cigar. The song starts, "Help, I need somebody...."

The song is simply titled "HELP!". They do however have another song "Please Please Me" which had that been the header of your original message, would have been glad to oblige if you are single and a woman:)

lol I appreciate all the help I can get

If anyone can tell me anything about the stage door - I dont know if as soon as the show is over I should run out there or what

I may be overthinking this but the only reason I get to go is becaue Max and Laura made it there ( bad bargain on my parents end lol) and I want to make the most of the week I am in NYC

Max and Laura usually come out about 15-20 minutes after the show comes down.  Get there ASAP for a good spot along the rail.  They are both great people and very friendly, and take time to sign for everyone.

Thanks everyone! So Laura and Max do sign for everyone? A friend of mine says she refuses to stage door because the actors sign like 10 things then leave...

I've passed by on my Starbucks run (there's a Starbucks across the street) and saw Laura climb over the hood of her Escalade to sign stuff.

awesome that makes me feel so much better! thanks for the help and if anyone else has any good going to the show/new york tips let me know!
but they dont let you take a picture with them?
not even like leaning over the rail very bad side view photos?
otherwise I am afraid I will be like the paparazzi and snap photos of them while they are with in five feet of me lol
you never know, knowing myself I may be too starstruck, when I met Kelly Clarkson years ago I just smiled like an idiot and as I was leaving shouted "I voted for you sooooo many times!!!" Weird, I know, and since I voted for Max and Laura about 1,000x's more than anyone I've ever watched on American Idol we shall see what words spill out of my mouth.

Depending on the number of people waiting, they may not allow photos. You can snap as many as you like while they're signing, though.

So do most of the cast memebers come out and sign? or is it just Max and Laura?
