This weekend me and one of my best friends ran off to NYC for a lil getaway. We got to see some shows, do too much shopping and eat some great meals. I have to thank the whole staff at the Bryant Park Hotel who made our trip so perfect. I couldn't imagine a better place to stay. The location was just right and the employees hooked us up with everything we needed. We're already planning our next trip.
We got to check out the brand new 9 to 5 musical. West Wing star Allison Janney takes on the Lily Tomlin role of Violet. The musical is pretty faithful to the 1980 movie which is one of my favorites. It was ridiculously fun and Megan Hilty perfectly channels Dolly Parton in the role of Doralee. I have to admit that I was totally distracted the whole show (in a really good way) by So You Think You Can Dance contestant Neil Haskell in the ensemble.
Before we headed back to North Carolina we also got to see the new revival of Guys & Dolls. I was superexcited to see Gilmore Girls Lauren Graham in her Broadway debut. Lauren was incredible and the show was tons of fun. It also stars my boyfriend Nick Adams and his amazing body.

That IS a fabulous hotel. Could the rooms BE any bigger? Love that place.
Funny to see the downstairs club fully-lit and free of skank hos and wannabe playas.
