coloco aqui outras sugestões para pensarmos...não prefeririam mesmo Broadway tipo Spamalot (Monty Pithon), Les Miserables ou mesmo Phantom of the opera...eu quando lá estive vi Miss Saigon e adorei...vão pensando!
Voto em Spamalot e/ou The Producers e/ou Young Frankenstein e outra coisa mais off broadway com alguém famoso!!!!!
confesso q fiquei um pouco confusa, desnorteada, perdida.. mas visto que ambas falam em Spamalot, parece-me óptimo.. tipo tentava-se assegurar bilhetes pelo menos pra esse, não?
