These long-running, Tony Award-winning shows are required viewing for every visitor to NYC—and that means YOU.
SHOWS OPEN AND CLOSE all the time in New York, the live-theater capital of the world. But “The Phantom of the Opera,” “Chicago,” “The Lion King” and “Avenue Q” have been running for 29, 21, 20 and 14 years, respectively. Why? The answer is simple: They’re good. Each won the Tony Award for best of its season; each is as pristine in performance now as it was on opening night; each has become an irreplaceable NYC icon, like the Empire State Building or Brooklyn Bridge. If you’ve never seen a Broadway or Off-Broadway show, start with these musicals. They’re unforgettable.

Trompe L'Oeil Triumphant
Early works by Stephen Posen (b. 1939)—New York-based artist and, incidentally, father of fashion designer Zac Posen—are on display in “Threads: Paintings From the 1960s and ’70s,” an ambitious two-part exhibition at Vito Schnabel Projects (thru June 23, this page) and its sister gallery in St. Moritz, Switzerland (July 28–Sept. 2). “Untitled” (detail, left), a large-scale, photorealist painting of cloth-covered boxes from 1970, has never been publicly shown in New York until now.
