In looking over my top 10 New York theater list for 2014, and top 10 lists by other critics, I realized that most of the shows we favored have ended their runs. So here is another top 10 list, of shows that opened in 2014 and (as of today) you can still see, though (for some of them) not for long. This list skews more towards Broadway shows than the others did, since Broadway shows tend to have longer runs. This is arranged chronologically by when they are scheduled to close, meaning the open-ended runs are at the bottom. Titles link to my reviews.
Side Show – ending January 4th
This Is Our Youth – ending January 4th
The Invisible Hand – ending January 4th
Disgraced – ending February 15th

Every Brilliant Thing – ending March 29th
Hedwig and the Angry Inch – open run (the cast has changed since I saw it.)
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time – open run
