New York City is known for a lot of things, but probably the most notable attraction in the city is Broadway. Broadway is a theater district in the heart of Manhattan that features the best theater productions in the world. Here you will see the most provocative, opulent, avant guard, and touching productions that are out there. However, the perfect Broadway vacation is not just about the shows. It is also about your lodging, the sites of the city, and the restaurants in the area.
Plays on Broadway
There are always a variety of productions to see on Broadway, but currently there is so much variety to be seen. One of the biggest must see moneymakers on Broadway has to be “Wicked”. Wicked chronicles the magical land of OZ before Dorothy went to visit, and it seems that OZ is not quite what we may have thought it to be. Filled with breathtaking music, eye popping effects, and gorgeous costumes this show should not be missed.
If you actually desire a little taste of the city then you may check out In The Heights. This Tony award winning musical truly captures the Puerto Rican culture of Brooklyn in both its music and choreography. This production took the theater world by force, and people are still talking about it.
For those that wish to see the final word in Broadway vision then you need to check out Disney’s production of Mary Poppins. In this fantastic production you will see all of the Disney sorcery that you have been having dreams about together with pretty music, rich costumes, and inspiring choreography.
Where to Stay
For the budget-minded there is a selection of reasonable hotels near Broadway. When doing your research you are going to want to have a look for those that are near the Times Square area which is really the center of the Broadway district. Most of the hotels in this area feature the historical influence of New York, but there are so more contemporary feeling selections like the W hotel or the Mariott Marquis.
Restaurants in the area
The good news is that you will not be at a total loss when it comes to cuisine while on your Broadway holiday. The Broadway area is stuffed with some of the best restaurants in the city as well as some familiar chains like Sabarro and McDonalds. If you want to take a bit of a walk you may wish to walk over to 8th avenue because that’s where some of the best cafes are hidden. It is often a good concept to ask the locals what they’re favorite place to eat is. If you are at the box office buying tickets for your show, you may want to ask the attendant where they would recommend that you eat. Additionally, your playbill will often have advertisements of great places to eat that are round the theater district. Finally, any of the hotels near Broadway can generally give you some wonderful recommendations since they know the area best. It never hurts to ask!
TIP: You can find great deals on hotels near Broadway or hotels near times square by simply booking far in advance and in the off peak season.
