The Visit

See it if you enjoy non-traditional musicals. This is dark, weird, intense. The fascinating story engrosses for the short run-time. Chita is stunning.

Don't see it if you are squeamish. The music is not K&E's best, but there was much to like. Excellent use of yellow! Imposing set. Insight into the psyche.

Also I'm re viewing shows that I saw before I joined Show Score. The Visit was memorable in its purposeful oddity. I didn't love it as I watched it, but I liked it more upon reflection. And it was great to see Roger Rees on stage. He is missed!... Read more Read less

See it if something different and darker from most Broadway musicals would fit the bill. This is a tale of karma twisted into a cruel comeuppance.

Don't see it if you want a popcorn show for your viewing pleasure. This unique take on consequences when there is no forgiveness is compelling, not fluffy.

See it if you worship @ the Our Lady of Diva Chita Rivera altar. Nothing else to see here. Music's forgettable, choreography's weird, theme's morbid.

Chita Rivera is amazing and great. She dances, still sings. She always appears with great costumes, she is a queen. She sings with her peculiar accent.
She is a legend.
The stage movements are nice and incredible. The lighting is very good, it transforms the figures of the actors.
It is a story that embraces in different emotions.... Read more Read less

See it if This is 1 of those shows that U like cause it allows Chita Rivera to return to the Bdwy stage. The plot & the songs are ok, but CHITA is all

Don't see it if No Chita?? Why bother. A revenge plot may be entertaining to mean-spirited folks, maybe even longtime fans of Kander & Ebb, but beyond that?

See it if You want to see a great play ruined by its transformation into a totally boring musical.

Don't see it if You can see just about anything else instead.
