For play, I got to see Phatom of the Opera and Mama Mia on broadway.  Concert, I got to see Wiz Khalifa twice!

I don't go to plays.

Concerts, it is hard to say.  Been a while but in my younger days I saw quite a few concerts.  I couldn't really pick one over the other.  I liked different ones for different reasons even down to who I was with.

I've never been to a play. I've been to a lot of concerts when I was younger. The best were AC/DC and Roger Waters.

I don't have a favorite play.  I've been to a few but nothing won me over.  (At least not yet) I did however see a high school play of Alladin years ago and I couldn't believe how good it was for the age of the kids and efforts of everyone involved in putting it together.  I went to winter jam for the first time and gotta say it was the best bang for the buck.  I will be doing it every year if I can from here on out.

I don't go to see plays very often but the best one I saw was years ago.  I was "Wicken" .  It definitely changes your view of the Wicked Witch of the West in the Wizard of Oz.

My favorite concerts and/or plays are usually the last one. My last concert was Offspring (Slayer was the concert before that). Clutch and Rancid stand out because they were new to me and I really loved their show. I was hoping to see Social Distortion and Flogging Molly but ended up giving the tickets to my children. I really wanted to see the Dropkick Murphys and Clutch but the tickets are a bit pricier than I am willing to pay.I have my name on the list for our Company's box for an upcoming concert but it may force me to change my flights for a concert I have the next day. La Traviata was the last show I saw (Opera) but have been to the Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserable, Miss Saigon in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. I really want to see The Book of Mormon (love the soundtrack) and Wicked.

I couldn't pick a favorite. I love to see plays and concerts. Too many concerts to list, but plays... I've seen Les Mis and Cats a few times each, A Streetcar Named Desire, Singin' in the Rain, Annie, Phantom of the Opera, The Great Gatsby, Jesus Christ Superstar, The Crucible, Camelot, a bunch of Shakespeare: Macbeth, Othello, Merchant of Venice, Romeo and Juliet, Taming of the Shrew, A Midsummer Night's Dream. I'm leaving out some lesser knowns, I'm sure. I haven't been to a play in a few years, time to go...

My favorite concert was Love at the Mirage in Las Vegas. It was also the most elaborate staging I have ever heard of, let alone seen and as a Beatles fan, I enjoyed every second of it.

The best play i've seen was CATS... I have seen it many times. It was one of the first plays I went to & I first saw it in college on student discount of $20 -- was so amazed. Many years later, & many shows later, CATS still is on the top of the list.... not looking for the live action movie though.  Don't know if I'll watch it, seeing it live & seeing it on film doesn't translate well, I don't think.

LOVE was SO good... I was ready to sit through it again when it was over.  I, too, enjoyed every second of it.

I've been to so many plays and musicals (because I am kind of a theater nerd/actress/playwright) that it would be hard for me to pick a favorite. One particular show that sticks out was the musical "Catch Me If You Can" performed by a professional group in my area. I absolutely loved the songs. You guys should check it out.
