It would have been helpful if there was a list of shows to choose from, since Bushnell staff must know what shows would be available, rather than everyone listing their dream show that might not even be touring. That being said, I would love to see In the Heights, Xanadu and South Pacific.

I would like to see The Paul Taylor Dance Company. His new pieces are terrific and there are at least three dancers with Connecticut roots. We need more than the Nutcracker to reignite the Dance community in Hartford. go for it Bushnell. You won't regret it.

Please, everyone, can't we get past the same old shows that have been around and touring forever? We don't need Grease, Annie, or Cats again! This is why theaters have a hard time getting younger people to become subscribers. I hope Bushnell staff have the foresight to realize you need to bring in more contemporary shows if you want to expand your audience base. How about at least a mixture - one or two old chestnuts with some more recent shows?

I would love to see a rendition of "Cat on a hot tin roof" which was recently on Broadway, staring Terrance Howward and Phylicia Rashad, directed by Debbie Allen. Not sure if you can get the same cast but would love to see this African American version of the classic come to Hartford!

Next season I would like to see beverages baned in the theatre. Somehow sitting in a great theatre next to someone in jeans having a glas of wine while listerning to clasical music does not seam right. Next thing will be hot dogs and beer.
