Intelligent, Riveting, Great staging, Great singing, Must see

See it if you want a creative, powerful, unique original musical with amazing music. Superb cast, standouts Eva and Andre

Don't see it if you want a straightforward, traditional musical. This has a lot of blues/jazz influence and is experimental in its approach to the myth
