I forgot that I also saw ABBA, wasn't a big fan, but my wife liked it.  There's one other that I'm missing...I'm sure it will come to me later.
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.

Seen three great ones (Cats, Le Mes, Phantom of the Opera).  Phantom was great; it was at the Fox in Atlanta; the accompaniment was done on the Mighty Moeller Organ.
Whoa, the Mighty Mo is something else. O:O
The Atlanta Fox is one of the best places to view a show. Saw Kenny Rodgers and Lorrie Morgan there. There used to be lots of huge theaters like the Fox all over the country. Most were located in the downtown areas of big cities. Too bad they're gone. I think Chicago has one. Does your town have an old theater like the Atlanta Fox?

Use to be a Paramount in downtown Atlanta, along with the famous Lowe's Grand.  The Paramount was torn down, along with the old Henry Grady Hotel, to build the Westin.  Lowe's burned in the late 70's.  The GA - Pacific Building is on its site.

I've seen Les Mis, Rent and Wicked. All three were good, but Rent is a fave.

Marz, I really think you'd dig it.  See it if you can, and if you get to NYC it should be on your list of things to do.
