See it if You enjoy a fresh play set in Ghana with a great cast.

Don't see it if High school pettiness is not your favorite theme.

Also Would have rated higher, but the lines were delivered so rapidly that it was hard to follow at times. Yes, this is another "Mean Girls," but it is approached creatively and delivered by an excellent cast. Well worth seeing.... Read more Read less

See it if You want to see an exceptional, but all too frequent story, told convincingly and with superb force.

Don't see it if You don't care about our racist society.

Also This play will put your stomach in a not and it will stay there. Audible gasps from the audience occur throughout. Hard to believe how well done this show is.... Read more Read less

Don't see it if You don't like this classic.

See it if You want to see an all-star cast do a great job with a fast-paced and complex show.

Don't see it if Gay themes are not for you.

Also Great show with a great cast. Some remarkable performances by this cast. Show is funny and sad at the same time. Really enjoyed this show.... Read more Read less

See it if you want to see a fun, fun, fun show. No need to have seen the movie. Show stands alone.

Don't see it if high school intrigue is not your thing.

Also Loved this cast. Had not seen the cult film on which this show is based, but did not need to. What an assembly of voices and characters to make this show special. Great lines, funny scenarios, and lively dancing make this a must see.... Read more Read less

See it if You want to see a masterful remake.

Don't see it if you want to miss a great show.

See it if You want to see an outstanding revival of a classic show done to perfection.

Don't see it if Have to say here that you really should see it.

Also Always wonder if a revival will live up to earlier versions. This one does in every way possible. I cannot imagine a better cast. Incredible voices across the entire cast. Staging and direction are just right.
The dancing is spectacular with a choreographer apparently from the ballet world. This will clearly be a strong possibility for best revival. One of my all time favorite revivals.
Really sad that the reviewers did not see the exceptional presentation and performance of this show. See it for yourself . You will NOT be disappointed.... Read more Read less

See it if You want to see a great revival with Glenn Close

Don't see it if you want to miss a good show.

Also Glen Close is great in this show. The orchestra must be forty pieces and is excellent. Great show. Leads are great.... Read more Read less

See it if you want to see the entire theater as the performance space and love an energetic massive production.

Don't see it if you haven't studied the plot and learned all the characters as you will be lost during the first act.

Also Quite a production. The all-theater staging is masterful. I sat behind the music director at a table on the stage. Great fun with Natasha singing a song from our table. That said, even with studying the chart of characters, it took me most of the first act to make out who the characters are. Worth seeing, but read the synopsis, the character profiles and study the chart in playbill before you see it. The confusion of who is who distracted me from enjoying the show from the start.... Read more Read less

See it if you don't think Sweeney Todd can be done any better than the ones you have seen. You are wrong. This production is incredible.

Don't see it if You want to miss one of the best Sweeney Todd's you will ever see.

Also Just a remarkable production with the audience sitting in the middle of ALL the action. Cast is superb. Staging couldn't be better. This is a great experience. Do not miss this production!!!... Read more Read less

See it if You want to see one of the most creative shows out there.

Don't see it if Puppets are not your thing (there are people under the puppets)

Also Remember folks, this show won best new Musical against Wicked. How about that. It is a great show with clever songs and characters. If you haven't see it, this is one to get to.... Read more Read less

See it if you like a fun feel good Broadway show

Don't see it if the classic good versus evil theme is passé.

Also Loved the cast. Somehow thought this would not be a great show. I was wrong. Really enjoyed it. This one should run for a while on audience popularity with critical acclaim probably not as great. Go see it and decide for your self. You will not be sorry.... Read more Read less

See it if a star-studded cast in a tedious vehicle works for you.

Don't see it if You are expecting an absorbing show.

Also Star-studded and fun. As always Nathan Lane brings his immaculate comedy timing to a show that sometimes drags a bit. What a cast line-up.... Read more Read less

See it if you think a story like this would work.

Don't see it if the idea of six dead kids on a roller coaster does not sound great.

Also Great attempt, but I could not get into the show. You may enjoy it as it is clearly unique.... Read more Read less

See it if you like great acting.

Don't see it if A small show is not your thing.

Also Just enjoyable.

See it if you are a fan.

Don't see it if juke-box musicals are not your thing.

See it if you want to see the master work of Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Don't see it if you have already seen it 12 times.

See it if You loved the movie and also even if you didn't.

Don't see it if Hated the movie. (How could you?)

See it if Great revival.

Don't see it if You live on the moon

See it if you are a Disney freak.

Don't see it if you have other things to see. Not one of Disney's best.

See it if you loved the Wizard of Oz as a kid. This will explain what you missed.

Don't see it if no reason not to see this. It is a classic.

See it if You like GO GO's music and some pretty good choreography.

Don't see it if You don't like to be confused.

Also The pieces of this show are great. Good singers, great choreography, good music and kind of a plot. The problem is the pieces do not quite fit together. It is a lively show, but just doesn't quite work.... Read more Read less

See it if You loved the movie.

Don't see it if You hated the movie.

Also It has to be difficult to make a musical of a classic motion picture watched over and over by millions. This show did a fantastic job of telling the story perfectly. As with Groundhog day, I was skeptical that a musical could capture the movie. It did and then some. Cast is GREAT. Kudos to the Happy Man/ Hotel Manager!!... Read more Read less

See it if You are a Harry Potter fan

Don't see it if You have not at least watched the first four movies.

Also Delightful show. British accents and rapid dialogue were difficult on first night. Added headphones second night - big difference. Get the RF headphones as there is a DELAY with the WiFi headphones that is annoying. Scorpius in incredible!!!!... Read more Read less

See it if Great acting and a great reflection on fathers and sons and siblings.

Don't see it if You expect a gay theme

Also Enjoyed this show. Actors are really good and the story line is engaging. A great effort.... Read more Read less

See it if you have ever hummed "pour me something tall and strong," You will love this show.

Don't see it if you don't like Jimmy Buffet.

Also Hey. Reviewing this show as a Buffet lover. This is a clever story weaved from CLASSIC Buffet songs. The cast is stellar and perfectly cast to bring out extra fun from the Buffet songs. Critics were nasty to this show, but audiences will love it. Hearing an entire audience respond to "lost shaker of salt," with "Salt! Salt! Salt!" is a rip. New Yorkers may not be big Buffet fans, so the question is "will the Parrotheads make their way to the BIg Apple for this show?" The songs are perfectly assembled into the story and fit right in. Loved this show!!!... Read more Read less

See it if you want to see a moving and masterful presentation of a troubling period of U.S. history - the AIDS crisis.

Don't see it if you don't care.

Also Remarkable that a 7 hour plus show could move along so well. The acting by this cast is stellar. Staging is masterful. This show should not be missed.... Read more Read less

See it if You want to see a classic show with a great Broadway Diva in the lead (have seen both Bette and Bernadette)

Don't see it if You don't like musicals.

Also Have now seen both Divas. Won't tell you my favorite, but see this show if you get the chance. Original choreography is just classic. What a fun show!! Supporting cast is exceptional.... Read more Read less

See it if You loved the movie and want to see how it is even possible to put the show on the stage.

Don't see it if You want to miss a great transition of a movie to the stage.

Also How do you recreate the magic of Disney's most successful movie? Tough task, and this production gets you there. The cast is great and you will love Olaf and Sven.

My take is that Let it Go in this production outshines the movie version and that is a tough task.

Great choreography adds to the show and the new music fits perfectly into the story.

This is a well-done production that will wow audiences in NYC for years to come.... Read more Read less

See it if You are a Sally Field fan.

Don't see it if You have seen other productions. They are likely to have been better.

Also Stark production. Great acting, but this was not a favorite version of this show. I found the rain and the candelight setting distracting (other friends thought that was great). Had hoped for a little more out of this production.... Read more Read less

See it if you are a fan of the movie. This show follows the original movie, but has additional dialog that is clever and funny.

Don't see it if you didn't like the movie. How can that be?

Also I was skeptical that a musical could capture the humor and poignancy of the movie. It does! And it adds comical actions and dialog that are creative and funny. The staging is exceptional with many revolving stages. The police chase is a rip. Andy Karl is great as well as the rest of the cast. Several illusions left the audience in amazement. Glad I saw this after being so skeptical.... Read more Read less

See it if You want to see two of the quintessential leading ladies perform exquisitely. Still cranking out the sounds.

Don't see it if you are not quite a cosmetics fan. Just kidding - but this show maybe works better if you are a cosmetics fan.

Also Slow first act as I may have not been attuned to the cosmetics world. Second act picks up and goes into showing these ladies as tough businesswomen. Leads are must see.... Read more Read less

See it if you have not seen a production of Sweet Charity. The Fosse versions are a tough comparison.

Don't see it if you expect Fosse directing and choreography.

Also I was fortunate in that I had not seen earlier productions or the movie, so I had no comparison. This made the show very enjoyable for me. Friends who have a vision of the show have been a little disappointed, but not me. Sutton is such a great actor/dancer that you cannot help but love her role. I had heard this was somewhat dark, but that is the story anyway. You probably cannot get tickets at this point, but your should try if possible.... Read more Read less

See it if You want to see an incredible cast perform a moving rendition of this classic.
