At least you don't have to worry about Phantom going anywhere, since chances are it isn't going to close anytime soon! Hopefully you get to see it with Howard Mcgillin though, I saw him play the phantom and he was phenomenal, I went back specifically to see him and caught his understudy (it was a little disappointing)...
Theres also Young Frankenstein, although it maybe a little over her head...
Thanks for the input guys.. Maybe I will "run into" one of you in Times Square...I know you New Yorkers just love us tourists! My daughter will love listening to you guys talk,...She thinks its cool how you say Hot Dog more like hot DAWG. And chicken tenders are tendas....I think she secretly wants to move there when she is older and develop what she thinks is the coolest way to talk. Have a good night guys..I am off to try to sleep away the minutes...I hate waiting....Italian impatience....
Mellyboo, it sounds like you might be in NYC for a few days. If I was you, the second I got to NYC (assuming the strike is over by then), I would head to the Majestic Theatre and see if you could get your tickets exchanged for another performance this week. Phantom usually has house seats reserved that aren't released to the general public until 48 hours before a performance (and they usually are in prime locations), but I bet they will go fast with all the people who I imagine will be attempting to exchange their tickets. Anyway, it is something to try before you get tickets to something else. I'd have a "back-up plan" in mind though in case Phantom doesn't have anything when you get there or, God forbid, the strike is still going on.
You New Yorkers are good people..Thanks for your insight and your help..I will try that Joniray...Even if we miss one of our other shows, I think she would rather see Phantom over all of the others shows we have tix to. Y'all have a good nite! Had to throw the southern talk at ya!
I just heard from three different news stations that they are negotiating but one of the major sticking points still has to be solved. Losing hope fast here...

Pei Zei Chang (apologies, because I probably spelt that wrong) just reported on NBC News that talks were continuing, progress had been made, but talks will continue through the night. There was a short interview with Cohn from about 9:00 when they took a break. He said they were "closer than they were 24 hours ago" and hoped to have an announcement by "daybreak."
I don't seem to get any freaking national news here in Iowa! CNN is just talking about politics, and no other station here does national news. Stupid. I'm still hopeful though!
"Charlotte St. Martin, Executive Director of The League, told cameras: "We're hoping for a successful conclusion." Network news sources say the issue of load-in has been resolved. However, issues of continuity hours and mopping duties are still being discussed."
That sounds promising! But the quote about mopping duties just cracks me up. I know it's an important issue in the overall big picture...but it's just mopping haha
"Somethin's comin', I don't know what it is but it is gonna be great!"
Do these people realize how ridiculous they sound with these quotes? Between yesterday's spreadsheets quote, and now this one, it really makes you wonder if we're in the twilight zone. I mean really...mopping is what is holding this up?
Here's an idea...they all need to order that automatic mopper from the Sharper Image catalogue. Problem solved.
Or... Or work it into the staging. Man in Chair already does some mopping in Drowsy... Just add mopping into the staging of every show and they're golden.

Heck, my mother's bf's business is just that - t-shirts, sweatshirts, whatever the like, whatever logo, text, or image desired. Hahaha! I can see it now!
