• "Billy Elliot," a 2005 London musical by Elton John and Lee Hall, based on the 2000 movie about the young son of an embattled coal-mining family in the age of Thatcher who aspires to enter the Royal Ballet School. A truly English musical with grit, humor, dreams and politics.
• "South Pacific" by Rodgers and Hammerstein, the glorious, mold-breaking postwar musical in its hit Lincoln Center revival, strong in both robust comedy and lyrical romance, starring Kelli O'Hara and Brazilian opera star Paulo Szot.
• "A Tale of Two Cities," newly adapted and musicalized by Jill Santoriello. An epic musical with a company of 38 and told in the expansive style of "Les Miserables," except that this time the revolution is the big one.
• "All My Sons" by Arthur Miller, a drama of compromised ideals and family crisis, starring John Lithgow and Dianne Wiest, with Patrick Wilson as their son and Katie Holmes making her Broadway debut, directed by Simon McBurney of the famous Complicite theater.
