As the seventh season of the hit show So You Think You Can Dance winds down, it’s time to starting thinking about the national tour of “So You Think You Can Dance.” Right now, there are still four dancers in the competition: Kent, Lauren, Robert, and Adechike. But if you’ve been following the show all these years, you know that anything can happen at the end. Every year, after they crown a winner, the show goes on tour with the best talent of the season. The excitement is ratcheted up a couple notches by the addition of All Star dancers from earlier seasons. You remember Ade, Dominic or Kathryn? They are just a few of the returning dancers. So You Think You Can Dance tickets for shows at Radio City Music Hall, Madison Square Garden and many other locations all around the nation are on sale already. I think they’ll sell out quickly, because this show has been so popular on TV. Previous tours were great. This one will be phenomenal.

Jim Gaffigan might not be a Broadway performer, but the Indiana-born comic sells a lot of comedy tickets. Gaffigan tours practically every year to sold out audiences across the country. His humor often focuses around simple topics like food and laziness, but people can’t see to get enough of it. In one of his bits Gaffigan muses over how email has taken over the way we communicate joking, “You ever get a handwritten letter in the mail today? “What the?… Has someone been kidnapped?” Between jokes Gaffigan pretends to be a crowd member by speaking in a very high voice. This comedic technique brilliantly keeps the audience from judging him. When he’s not sharing his thoughts on Hot Pockets and cake in theaters and casinos around the country, Gaffigan does a fair share of TV and film work. Look for Jim in the upcoming movie It’s Kind of a Funny Story and at a venue near you this year.

No Broadway experience is complete without getting your hands on tickets to see The Phantom of the Opera. Andrew Llyod Webber’s iconic musical about a disfigured genius who roams the shadows of the Paris Opera House is one of the most beloved musicals ever performed. Webber has been busy working on the forthcoming sequel to Phantom, Love Never Dies, which opens in London on February 22nd and will open in New York on November 11th. The musical takes place in Coney Island, where the Phantom has made a new life for himself as a architect, but cannot be happy without Christine. The Phantom arranges for Christine to come to Coney Island and sing, providing him a chance to reunite with his long lost love. Phantom lovers should go see the original first before seeing Webber’s new production, so they’re able to make a educated comparison between the two shows.
