I saw "Flowers for Algernon" at my high school last year. It was a great play, and the acting was wonderful for high school standards.
In Team America, "Rent" was called "Lease" or something like that, and it had a song called "Everyone has AIDS"
I like Rent too, although some of the characters annoy me
Hamlet. That was three years ago, I think. It was okay.
EDIT: Or maybe it was Juno and the Paycock. I dunno. Both were three years ago anyway.

Uhm; I guess it was "Falling Leaves". This thing about AIDs victims written and performed by AIDs victims themselves. It wasn't very good theatrically, although the message was beautiful.
The last BEST piece of theatre I've seen was this thing called "Don't Look Back" a few months ago. It was promenade theatre and ohhhh It was loosely based on this ancient Greek myth and they made us walk all around this abandoned hotel (which they'd done up) and different rooms would have different scenes. It was just breathtaking. I've never been so moved by a piece of theatre in my whole life
One of the BEST scenes that comes to mind now is when we walked (without guides and in groups of three) into this small dark room, and all of a sudden there's light from above us, and we realise we're actually standing in what's supposed to represent a coffin, and the light comes because the guy above has just lifted the coffin lid. And he's mourning and dropping petals down on us and we're just staring back up at him... jbjewhjw
Nope, you aren't the only one.
The last off-Broadway play I went to see was Once Upon a Mattress produced by my school. It wasn't mandatory the third time I went to see it and I loved it so much. Sure, it was done by amateurs, but they hardly seemed like it.
The last on Broadway play/musical was The Lion King a couple years ago; which was also my sixth time seeing it. Though, technically speaking, the most recent was Aida. But I saw it via online streaming.
Jane Eyre. Before that Joseph & The Technicolor Dreamcoat, then before that Les Miserables, then before that Phantom of the Opera.
I don't watch plays. I did watch King Lear as a play due to mandatory participation.
It was one my sister was in...she played a house...I think...I can't remember...
The last musical I saw was Man of La Mancha (before that was Wicked and Spamalot).
The last play I was in was the Wizard of Oz (as the title character) in a local church production.
I LOVE theater!!! I totally suck at acting so I always sign up for backstage work. Unfortunately, the only people interested in seeing a play with me are my grandparents, and for some reason we never get around to watching any XD
So...the last play I saw....well, I was in the light booth, so I can say I saw Phantom of the Tollbooth from the same point of view as the audience.
Technically, the last play I saw without doing backstage stuffs was Pom Pom Zombies. The schools were doing the One Act Play Festival, so we got to put on our play and watch the other schools do theirs too n.n
It's a lovely play about....what was it about....well, there were zombie cheerleaders...that's all I remember, but I did like it! Our middle school did it right after that but I was in high school by then so I didn't get to see it ; ;
