Looks like the 2005-2006 theater season is gonna be the best in decades! /sarcasm

Here are a few upcoming shows, as listed on http://www.playbill.com :

BLONDE IN THE THUNDERBIRD
Brooks Atkinson Theatre

"Three's Company" icon Suzanne Somers brings her one-women show – with music – to Broadway for a limited run. Suzanne Somers, the blonde in question (remember her role in American Graffiti?), takes the audience on a journey through her life, accompanied by well-known songs as well as ones she's penned herself.

LENNON
Broadhurst Theater

Imagine…the life and times of the late John Lennon illuminated by 27 of his songs, performed by nine diverse performers against a backdrop of slide and film projections.

Songs from the Lennon catalogue include “Imagine,” “Give Peace a Chance” and “Whatever Gets You Through the Night.”
