When it comes to the favorite musical of teenagers, no one can match “Mean Girls”. The name probably rings a bell, after all, it is the remake of Tina Fey’s famous movie. Just as the movie, the play follows closely the adventures of Cady Heron after she arrives at a suburban high school from the savannahs of Kenya. “Mean Girls” on Broadway is a very popular show not only amongst teenarges but amongst parents, too! The August Wilson Theater is a rather large venue, but it fills its capacity each and every night, so have it in your mind that tickets might be scarce or, if you’re shopping at the last minute – very expensive. This problem has a couple of solutions – looking for more than one ticket provider and doing it at the right time.

If I were you I wouldn’t buy Broadway tickets in advance at the moment. I know there are a few sites that will sell you tickets. But there are two things you need to be aware of. First, with all the uncertainty at present, there is a good chance that the particular performance for which you purchase tickets will be cancelled. This means that you will be on the phone for hours trying to get your money back. In 2020 there were a few large Broadway ticket companies that were not able to issue refunds quickly because the money they had collected were simply spent. I think you will be able to get your money but you might have to wait a little. I believe even ticketmaster had some delays with refunds for Broadway purchases. Second, ticket prices seem to be quite expensive now. Let’s take Wicked at the Gershwin Theatre for example. Vividseats will sell you tickets for June, but the primary market (ticketmaster or the box office) won’t . And the prices are starting from $164 (which doesn’ include the service fees which can be another $30-$40 per ticket) for the Rear Mezzanine. Generally you can find seats for Wicked in the Rear Mezz for $70-$80 per ticket. See a lot more information at Travel to New York 2021.

A walk, peddle, or carriage ride through the crisscrossing pathways of Central Park is a must-do on anyone’s New York City itinerary. In winter, you can even lace up your skates and glide across Wollman Rink. This huge park in the city center, a half-mile wide and 2.5 miles long, is one of the things that makes New York such a beautiful and livable city. Besides being a great place to experience a little nature, Central Park has many attractions within its borders, and most of them are free, making it one of the few cheap things to do in NYC. Some of the most popular places to visit include the Belvedere Castle, Strawberry Fields, the Central Park Zoo, and the Lake. If you are exploring the park on your own, start by picking up a map at one of the visitor centers and plot your routing.

All those people — where do they go? What do they do? Also, there’s an amazing eatery in the basement called the Grand Central Oyster Bar & Restaurant. And for fancy (and expensive) cocktails, visit the Campbell Apartments and step back into the 1920s (dress code enforced). The space was once the office of John W. Campbell, a member of the New York Central Railroad’s board of directors and finance tycoon from the 1920s. This area is always filled with hustle and bustle. Wander around Rockefeller Center to see where they film The Today Show, shop, snack, and take the elevator to the “Top of the Rock” for another bird’s-eye view of the city (which I personally think it better than the Empire State Building, since from the top of here you can get that building in your picture too!).
