Thom and I had planned to see Thoroughly Modern Millie next Saturday, but yesterday afternoon out of curiosity, I decided to check ticket availability for the other performances. (The touring company opens at Wolf Trap on Tuesday, Aug. 26.) To my delight, the ticketing website yielded two front-row seats for opening night (woo hoo!), so of course we couldn’t pass them up. They must’ve been released for sale only recently. (Reminds me of last fall, the day of the Ben Folds concert, I decided that hmm, yes, I actually did want to go, and Ticketmaster rewarded my procrastination with a seat in the second row.)
So yeah, I can’t wait. By the way, you New Yorkers (and vacationers), if you haven’t already, go see Millie on Broadway while Tony Award-winner Sutton Foster is still in the title role. She is awesome.

I’m one Thoroughly Jealous Rajani! 😉
And I second the Sutton Foster recommendation!
I was in NYC in April visiting a friend and decided –on a whim — to catch a show. Went to the Millie box office and got the last two tickets for that evening’s show at 45 minutes to curtain. We were balcony right, 15 feet from the stage. The tickets and the show kicked some serious ass.
i didn’t realize there was a version just for kids
As Jeff has noted, he and I are going to see Thoroughly Modern Millie next Tuesday night at Wolf Trap….
