On Your Feet! (Broadway)

See it if you really like Gloria Estefan's music. (Despite Gloria's warning, the rhythm did not get me.)

Don't see it if you are allergic to cheese.

See it if You absolutely love everything Gloria Estefan.

Don't see it if You want to feel like you're on a cruise ship listening to a jukebox.

See it if you would have bought tickets to a Gloria Estefan concert anyway

Don't see it if Who's Gloria? You're under 30 and can't hum 2 songs w/o looking her up. Looking for a classic B'way experience you can't find anywhere else

Also If you're enthusiastic about this musical just after seeing the poster, know that this will probably be the most high energy Broadway audience you'll ever be a part of (at least until the Michael Jackson musical comes out).

But if the prospect of going to this show raises your eyebrow or you have any doubts at all, do not go. This show is for a very niche crowd: Gloria fans only. Not a young person looking to be introduced to her music (several songs are cut short). Not anyone hoping the songs will be tied together with an interesting immigration story. Not a tourist deciding which surefire crowdpleaser to attend. Gloria fans only; because without that fan love the rest of the show is irredeemable.... Read more Read less

See it if You're a huge Gloria Estefan fan. Otherwise, it's like watching mediocre cruise ship entertainment w/a Latin theme. Plot is stale & cliché.

See it if you love the music -- the concert scenes are fabulous and the lead actress is a fantastic facsimile of Gloria Estefan.

Don't see it if you expect a great book & great design - the story is linear and safe, and the production design for the non-concert scenes is half-assed.

Don't see it if you're just looking for an engaging musical. If you're not really into Gloria Estefan, there's no point.

Also The "salsa" was disappointing - the ensemble clearly didn't understand partner dancing and were just moving through choreography with another person there, rather than dancing together. That said, the little boy in the show has some great shines and is absolutely adorable!... Read more Read less
