Theaters New York (Manhattan)

This musical is freely inspired by the work of Gaston Leroux. It holds the record for the most performed show on Broadway (in terms of number of times and for the longest period of time). Opened in 1988, the play has been playing in the same theater for over thirty years, the Majestic Theatre. Imagine that! The show has won seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical. As spectacular as it is, you should know that the play is a bit long, it lasts 2 hours 30 minutes with the intermission.

This famous musical is a satire of the widespread corruption that prevailed in Chicago during prohibition. All this to very jazzy music. Certainly one of the most erotic Broadways shows. Filmmaker Rob Marshall adapted it in 2002 with Catherine Zeta-Jones, Renée Zellweger and Richard Gere in the lead roles and six Oscars! After Phantom of the Opera, Chicago is the most performed play on Broadway - knowing that it was even inaugurated earlier, in 1977, before being interrupted for nearly 20 years.

It is the largest Art Deco theatre in the world - opened in 1932 - with a capacity of nearly six thousand seats, and is located within Rockefeller Center. A true New York icon, Radio City Hall, recognizable by its red neon lights, almost disappeared. Saved by the skin of its teeth, it now hosts music-hall shows, some important premieres and sometimes great rock concerts. Not to be missed: the magical show of the Rockettes. The Grammy Awards and the Tony Awards were also recorded here.

All superlatives were used to evoke the second most crowned musical in history with 11 Tony Awards. Created by composer, dancer and rapper Lin-Manuel Miranda, Hamilton tells the story of the founding fathers of America, mainly Alexandre Hamilton, all on hip-hop and R'n'B songs. An amazing mix of genres that works. All the stars have moved to the Rodgers Theatre! To have a chance to see it without paying the high price, try the lottery: www.luckyseat.com/hamilton-ny
