Not a cliche' for me. I love that city. Everything about it . . well, except for the lack of personal space. But other than that, total & complete love.
I was really looking forward to going back on this trip to NYC for two reasons:
1] Just me & my sis
2] Newsies.
Our reason for going. Newsies was mine & Kayla's absolute favorite movie when we were kids. So when I heard they were finally bringing it to Broadway, we knew we had to make it happen.
We sat orchestra left @ the Nederlander. We giggled & smiled so much waiting for the show to start that I felt like a teenager. We clapped, oohhed & awwed the whole way through. Maybe even yelled some?! ;) and ended the night, with everyone in the theater... on our feet for the standing ovation.
Newsies completely exceeded my expectations. The new songs & writing tweaks only made it better! [which I didn't even think was possible!]
If you read this post, and will be in NYC soon, please listen to me & go see this musical!
You'll thank me. Trust me.
*As of Sunday, Newsies is now a two time Tony winning musical!*
We got celebrate Kayla's birthday @ Home Restaurant in Greenwich Village.
Flying home ;(
