Mackenna's New York Dream Casting

Hi, everyone!

Last weekend, I went to NYC for the first time ever! Although I didn't get to see all the shows I wanted to see -- I would have loved to have seen Fun Home, School of Rock, Bright Star, the Color Purple, Hamilton, Waitress, The Humans and American Psycho -- I did have the opportunity to see Tuck Everlasting, Something Rotten!, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, and Shuffle Along. 

As I sit here, indubitably bored, on this Sunday afternoon - my mom awarded herself this Mother's Day with a long nap -- I decided to introduce this week of dream casting extravaganza by casting the four shows I saw in New York!
