See it if 9/11 is part of your history, you were touched no matter how distantly, you are not aware of how other countries shared our story and help

Don't see it if You are still too traumatized by 9/11, you do not like musicals you feel a real Bway musical must have whistles like a state fair

See it if EVERYONE should see this show. I could not stop smiling after seeing this production. There is something in it for everyone.

Don't see it if I have heard as an argument for not seeing it that it makes light of 9/11, but it doesn't. It celebrates the humanity that resulted from it.

Also Quite simply, one of the best musicals I have ever seen. Simple in its staging, and even though the 12 actors play multiple characters, you never get lost in where you are. This show is in a word BRILLIANT!... Read more Read less

See it if you are interested in a new work that explores an under-told story of 9/11. It could have been cliche, but they managed to pull it off.

Don't see it if You dont like actors playing multiple roles. Or if you do not want to see a 9/11 story.

See it if This beautiful story is a perfect antidote to the malaise and political scene of our current everyday life. People care! People are kind!

Don't see it if Simplistic set that evolves over and over with characters playing multiple parts and clever charismatic​ music, an overall win.

See it if you want to witness a beautiful story and a great cast as well!

Don't see it if you want to see a play!

See it if You still have wounds from 9/11. This magnificent show will help soothe those wounds.

Don't see it if You don't enjoy musicals that restore your faith in humanity with humor and grace.

See it if Anyone who needs healing, or at least a triptych to another place.

Don't see it if Lacking a heart

See it if This true story is moving, but as with real life funny, sad, and complicated. Actors take several roles and yet it feels seamless.

Don't see it if You don't believe that the tragedy of 9/11 happened.

See it if You enjoy podcasts such as This American Life, Radiolab, et al. Enjoy folk music. Want to see a show that is contemplative.

Don't see it if Only enjoy more legit theatre score. Want to see something with choreography. You just want something "light." If 911 is a trigger.

Also I very much enjoyed the show, though my (rush) seats were very obstructed. (Why do these theaters keep making sets that obstruct the outside seats? It doesn't have to be designed that way!)

The music, while not particularly memorable, sets the right atmosphere. I see it more as a sort of play with music than a traditional musical.

It is a really touching look at how humans can reach out to one another in dark times. While the writing is sometimes. little on the nose, it's really quite moving and accomplishes what it sets out to do.

If you are a musician, this show is a joy to watch. The musicians are very visible and they are fantastic. I will certainly go and see it again, as there were sometimes I just wanted to watch the band may have missed some things on stage.

That's not to say the band is distracting, I'm just a huge pit orchestra nerd.

This show is perhaps the most relevant piece on Broadway currently running. Feels like an off-broadway show in the best way possible.... Read more Read less

See it if up for an epic story about thousands of souls, distilled very effectively; you need evidence that humanity prevails & is worth striving for

Don't see it if you'd struggle tracking multiple characters inhabited by only 12 actors; looking for a straight musical—music feels incidental, story is key

See it if you are looking for a show that makes you feel good.

Don't see it if you are looking for a show that challenges you to think

See it if you can see this play as a beam of hope for humanity, and as entertainment and separate it from the broader scope of 9/11 & its sequelae

Don't see it if you were, and continue to be uneasily cognizant of the events of 9/11; have PTSD triggered by personal connection to that day.

Also I am grateful to the people on whom this show was based, but as a native New Yorker with a personal connection to the events portrayed, I had a really hard time watching this show. I tried to separate the play as a show from my own feelings with only limited success. It was difficult sitting in an audience, the majority apparently were tourists, many high school groups with kids not even born on that day. Bravo to the beautiful people of Canada for their humanity, but there is so much more to be said.... Read more Read less

See it if You want to see a wel done show, with a great ensemble, seeking only to entertain you. It was a great night in the theater.

Don't see it if You’re looking for big “star turns”. Jenn Collela was great, but never tried to steal the spotlight from her cast. Not hummable tunes.

See it if You want or need to be reminded that strength comes from diversity and kindness.

Don't see it if You are a misanthrope.

See it if you want to be totally enchanted and very much moved
