See it if She if you are a fan of the musical and want to see a talented young cast

Don't see it if If you want to see a well staged show. The projections they use are horrible and very distracting

Also I went in a little worried hearing that they had cut a lot. I’m happy to say I didn’t mind they cuts, all they really cut was I feel pretty which is a fun song but it is ok. Now what really made me not like the show was the way it was staged. They use projections during whole show. They are very distracting and sometimes the actors are not even visible on stage and all you get is the filming of them which is not why I come to the theatre, i want to be able to see the actors. The dancing is great and young cast are all very talented. But the projections ruin the show for me.... Read more Read less

Don't see it if If you want a happy story

Also Overall I enjoyed it but thought it could have been better. I felt like they had too many stories going on and all of them depressing. I think if they cut down some of the side stories and focused more on others it would have been better. You ought to know stops the show and is very well done. The acting and singing are well done and felt the second act was better in than the first.... Read more Read less

See it if If you want to hear Oscar Hammerstein music

Don't see it if If you expect to learn more about Oscar Hammerstein

Also The singing was good. I do wish all the songs were song traditionally instead of some were jazzed up. Also wanted to learn more about Oscar Hammerstein. He mostly just introduces the songs don’t really learn anything. Also thought the hologram was distracting and took an ackward amount of time to pull the screen back and forth. Think it would have been better if they just had a actor read that part and it would have worked better. Show only 90 min but felt very slow. Love the music but overall disappointed... Read more Read less

The songs are arranged with a blue grass feel that is almost haunting. The setting of a boarding house during the depression let’s the story follow different characters so you get different glimpses into everyone’s life. It is an amazing show go see it and then get the cast recording because the songs are that good.... Read more Read less
