I shot a bunch in NY and Montreal - I found that it depends on the show. If it's a small town show, try 4 second exposures focused on infinity (or use "landscape mode" if your cam has a quick setting). For a really fast, "performance" show, I'd go with about a 1/10 or even 1/20 and rapid fire burst mode, whatever you have to get just as many possible shots as you can and save the ones that come out. :)
Good luck. It's fun AND frustrating.
