About the Show

Direct from its hit London run, this musicalization of the classic Bill Murray movie comes to Broadway starring Tony nominee Andy Karl, with songs by Tim Minchin ('Matilda') and directed by Tony winner Matthew Warchus.

Meet Phil Connors, a disgruntled big-city weatherman mysteriously stuck in small-town America reliving the same day over and over and over again—with no consequences, no regrets, no tomorrows, and no hangovers. But once he starts getting to know associate TV producer Rita Hanson, he discovers it’s a day of second, third, and fourth chances.

Clever, Entertaining, Funny, Must see, Great staging

See it if You liked the movie but willing to see some changes. Even if you know the movie, the show keeps your interest and is entertaining.

Don't see it if You don't like movie adaptions. There are a couple of unnecessary songs which slow down the show.

Clever, Charming, Heartwarming, Fun

Clever, Entertaining, Funny, Quirky

See it if You want to see something different in a Broadway show.

Don't see it if You want to see standard Broadway musicals.

Great singing, Great staging, Entertaining

See it if you enjoyed the film. From what I remember, it stayed pretty true. Andy Karl was delightful. The car chase and a few others were fantastic.

Don't see it if you want anything beyond a light rom com. By nature, the show is a bit repetitive, but I think they do a good job of mitigating that.

Enchanting, Great singing, Quirky, Romantic

See it if If you like the film. The performances are great and uplifting spirit in this. Not repetitive even with the story.

Don't see it if You don't like romantic comedy. If you like songs that stick with you.

Entertaining, Cliched, Quirky, Great singing, Fun

See it if You enjoyed the movie, you can sit through a cliche first act for a fairly moving second act, and you don't need to be profoundly moved

Don't see it if You dislike repetition, are triggered by suicide, or go to musicals just for the choreography. You don't like Andy Karl. Read more

Refreshing, Resonant, Ambitious, Delightful

See it if you like the premise of deciding how to live your best life told with wit and humor and fun staging. Bit of darkness. Great lead actor.

Don't see it if dislike film to stage.Ugh:pink and blue people, lack of Sonny/Cher. Peeve: Fix Western PA accent! It's not Fargo(Mrs. Lancaster) or US South

Delightful, Clever

See it if Adds to the film classic with sharp commentary on feminism (work vs love life), purpose in a consumerist world, and urban vs rural divide.

Don't see it if Independent black woman character who at times outshines the white male protagonist annoys you. Read more
