My 13 year old also loved Come From Away

My 15 year old DD is a musical theater fanatic and we see a lot of shows.

Dear Evan Hansen - my teen's favorite - she LOVED this show

Wicked - incredible story, singing - especially if she likes the Wizard of Oz

Come From Away - pleasantly surprised at how great this show really was!

Hamilton - obviously great and my DD loved it - but Dear Evan Hansen really resonated with her

Here in DC - we just saw Mean Girls and it was great! The cast, sets, big numbers are fabulous! Highly recommend.



All AMAZING shows

I hear Hamilton is good.

Matilda is no longer on Broadway, it was replaced by Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Dear Evan Hansen would be my top pick. An AMAZING show. My teen loved it! Brilliant writing and music. Great show for entire family 12 and up.

I saw it and cried my eyes out. It's an intense look at high school and alienation.

As for a recommendation - Come From Away is wonderful - my 13 yo loved it. Also, The Play That Goes Wrong is slapstick British farce and good fun.

Matilda. Waitress I don't think Dear Evan Hansen is good for 13 yo.

Wicked

Would it be appropriate for a 6 year old?

Just saw School of Rock last month with girls ages 8, 11, and 14, and they all loved it.

My family and I loved the blueman group. It's off broadway.

Definitely Wicked. My kids also liked School of Rock

Took her to see Aladdin last year and I would say it was just OK... maybe a bit young for her.
Looking for more recs for this January.
Wicked?
Something cool and less mainstream off broadway?
