New york!, Nostalgic, Natty-dressed, Noteworthy, Nyc!

See it if you love your city and the narrative of who we are. You enjoy BIG numbers and the obvious showstopper anthem. You love tap and dance.

Don't see it if You are a purist and only Liza will do.

The New York Times
April 26th, 2023

“It is not much to remember from a show that clocks in at nearly three hours and had such formidable potential.”

Time Out New York
April 26th, 2023

“ ‘New York, New York’ is an affection project: a loving group tribute, with 40 producers above the title, to the 96-year-old Kander, one of Broadway’s most beloved creators. It’s an excuse for a big, old-fashioned dance on not-quite-finished materials.”

New York Theatre Guide
April 27th, 2023

“Theatregoers will recognize that Susan Stroman’s production, although it feels unfinished, is a love letter to the pair and their achievements in the genre. A revue would perhaps have been more appropriate than sticking half-developed characters with the songbook and hoping for the best.”

New York Magazine / Vulture
April 26th, 2023

“There is nothing wrong with a little New York boosterism. This show has more than a little — and a frustrating lack of critical perspective...I wanted something more historically grounded and nuanced...or, at the very least, with more grit.”

The Wall Street Journal
April 27th, 2023

“The performances are polished to a bright finish, even if the book by David Thompson, co-written by Sharon Washington, feels as busy as rush-hour traffic in the Times Square of yore. ”

Deadline
April 26th, 2023

“Even the rosiest-hued urban utopia can get a bit tiresome when it’s this overstuffed with good intentions...’New York, New York’ doesn’t exactly sleep, but it never fully wakes up either.”

New York Daily News
April 27th, 2023

“In those final moments, you think to yourself that all this show really needed was a greatly enhanced sense that New Yorkers actually do fall in love with each other because they are otherwise lonely. Just like everywhere else.”

Variety
April 26th, 2023

“It’s a lot of striving to pack into a single show, and demands a similar sort of tolerance for too-muchness as New York itself does. But it’s all rendered with spectacular stagecraft”
