February. The month when snow is still coming down, but love is in the air. And with it, a very special day comes to mind where couple celebrate with a nice meal or a fun memory-making activity. If you haven’t made plans for Valentine’s Day, we have a great idea: Take your loved one to a Broadway show!

Thanks to Playbill and the all-new Playbill Partner Hotels Booking Engine and in honor of Valentine’s Day, Playbill is celebrating the best time to couples to see live theatre in NYC! As a theatre fan and frequent Broadway theatregoer, here are five shows I recommend taking your loved one to see, including information on tickets and times. 

Lin-Manuel Miranda, Aidy Bryant, Jimmy Fallon, and Nick Kroll in All In: Comedy About Love Emilio Madrid


All In: Comedy About Love


Hudson Theatre
141 W. 44th St., New York, NY

This show is hysterical. All In: Comedy About Love is a series of hilarious stories about dating, heartbreak, marriage. If you are a Saturday Night Live fan, All In was written by well-known screenwriter Simon Rich (Saturday Night Live) and directed by Tony Award-winning director Alex Timbers. To make it even more appealing, the show is performed by a rotating cast of some of the funniest people on the planet—including Lin-Manuel Miranda, Tim Meadows, Jimmy Fallon and more.

If you can get to see this production before it closes on February 16th, you are in for a perfect evening of storytelling and laughing with your loved one—making it a perfect date night!

Megan Hilty and Jennifer Simard in Death Becomes Her Mathew Murphy and Evan Zimmerman


Death Becomes Her

Lunt-Fontanne Theatre
205 W. 46th St., New York, NY

“If you want perfection”, I cannot rave more about this musical as a perfect death…er, date night option. Based on the classic 1992 film, Death Becomes Her is a “drop-dead hilarious new musical comedy about friendship, love, and burying the hatchet…again, and again, and again.” Sure, it's about two friendemies, but it's also about finding your person, in life and in death. This lavish and side-splitting musical stars Tony Award nominees Megan Hilty, Jennifer Simard, and Christopher Sieber, with Destiny’s Child’s very-own Michelle Williams.

This musical could very-well be "alive forever," but I recommend seeing it now!

Helen J Shen and Darren Criss in Maybe Happy Ending Matthew Murphy and Evan Zimmerman


Maybe Happy Ending


Belasco Theatre
111 W. 44th St., New York, NY

Here’s another musical that I went to see and fell in love with right away. Maybe Happy Ending is the offbeat and captivating story of two Helperbots who discover that even robots can be swept off their feet. The musical stars fan favorite Darren Criss and Helen J Shen who makes her Broadway debut. The set is stunning, music captivating, and story one I will remember forever. What is love? It's Maybe Happy Ending.
