I hear wonderful things about Dear Evan Hanson, and the lead is from Pitch Perfect. The topic is suicide though, so it depends on the sensitivity of your teens.

Miss Saigon is pretty boring. I haven't seen the others, but I dozed off in Miss Saigon. I've seen a ton of Broadway shows, I live 30 minutes from Manhattan, and this is the only one that put me to sleep, in my 40+ years of Broadway shows.


Miss Saigon is fantastic and very emotional storytelling.

You must be a millennial who doesn't care about history.


I remember seeing this as a teenager 20 years ago and I loved Miss Saigon. Hoping to go see it on Broadway when it opens soon.
Wicked is the other favorite of my kids.

Miss Saigon is beautiful and the teens will love it.

+1 Dear Evan Hansen. I saw it when it was at Arena Stage a couple years ago. Audience was full of tweens and teens.

If it's still playing Putnam County Spelling Bee is really funny.

How could I be a millenial with 40+ years of Broadway shows?
You don't read well.

Wrong, and wrong. Nice try though.

It's boring.

None of which will be thrilled about the prospect of seeing a show, anyway, but will end up enjoying it. Obviously, not Hamilton because we aren't paying that kind of $. Three children 16, 14, 11
