While it is painful to part with that $100 for a Broadway show, I can assure you that you will get that back a hundredfold in the memories it will bring you. I grew up in Connecticut, by the shore and had a neighbor who sang at the Met.

As I was best friends with her son, we were whisked up in the nightlife of theatre and song... and music. My memories crowd one another and yet, each one of those experiences stands out.

Great seats just cannot be beaten and seeing it as an adult is the best yet! I will jump at the chance to see the Phantom, any day of the week. And I couldn't agree with you more! Live and up close and personal like that changes the whole game!!!

Happy you got that experience!
