My aunt is visiting from Nice and I would love to take her to a show in the city (manhattan). Besides Stomp and Blue Man Group any suggestions? She loves dancing and I thought I saw a Tango - off broadway show but I haven't seen it advertised recently.
any suggestions would be appreciated
thank you

Trip Ideas
I suggest Jersey Boys. It's a really fun show with lots of great music that she'll probably enjoy even if she can't understand the lyrics.
Burn the Floor. It's all dancing!
Radio City Music Hall Christmas show.
I haven't seen it yet, but I've also heard that 'Burn the Floor' is fantastic.

Burn the floor!!! she will love it -thanks so much.
West Side Story - I'm sure she's old enough to know the plot and the score
Jersey Boys or Billy Elliot - both fantastic!
Another idea regarding _West Side Story_. Check to see if you can rent or buy the DVD with the possibility of French sub-titles or dubbing, then have her watch the DVD in French a few days before she goes to the play. She'll learn the plot and lyrics, and can then enjoy both at the show.
If you do take this idea, I'd be interested on how the phrase, "Gee, Officer Krupke: Krup you!!", is translated.
Is Lion King still playing?
