Revelation: The Musical

See it if You enjoy great singing, creative costumes and props and really good musicians. Interesting visual interpretation of the book of revelation

Don't see it if You don't like thinking "out of the box" productions. It's helpful if you have some familiarity with the book of revelation.

Also I found the first half to better than the second half, but that's probably because the first portion of the book of revelation is easier to understand than some portions of the latter half of the book, making the latter portion of the book more difficult to reduce to song and dance numbers.... Read more Read less

See it if If you like great singing

Don't see it if you don't like a confusing plot and storyline

Also One of the first things they mentioned prior to the show starting was if you are confused watching the play, don't worry we are also....and that stayed true throughout.... Read more Read less

See it if Great show the singing and songs are great. it’s incredible that someone made the book of revelation sound musical the one pianist was great

Don't see it if No reason to not see it

See it if you're ready to be "wow'd" by something completely different. I've not seen anything like it - the book of Revelation word-for-word. So good

Don't see it if you don't want to have a good time. Seriously, this cast is enchanting and SUPER talented. What these guys have created is brilliant!

See it if Incredibly creative, loved the music, so thought provoking and convicting, great job on all fronts.

Don't see it if This show is for everyone.

See it if Everyone should take the time to see this show. The music is absolutely incredible and the staging is magical. What an experience!

Don't see it if There’s no reason not to see it!

See it if This show is appealing and relevant to everybody! Go if you want more knowledge and to be highly entertained by such talented people!

Don't see it if I think everybody should see it.

See it if Fresh and creative take on the book of Revelation

Don't see it if You don’t like great singing

See it if you like awesome singers, are interested in the book of Revelation, and are entertained by avant garde.

Don't see it if you are expecting a coherent storyline. This is the book of Revelation, present word-for-word and in the order it was written.

Also Revelation presents chapters and sections with theatrical tone to help the listener understand what’s going on. It’s a very confusing and symbolic book and this show has an uncanny way of making it more understandable and extremely entertaining. The music style ranges from Hamilton to Gospel to STOMP, all very appropriate for the text. It’s edgy, creepy, funny, and ultimately uplifting.... Read more Read less

See it if You’re a theologian who has studied Revelation, an atheist who has never opened the book of Revelation, or anything in between.

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

See it if you want to be uplifted and haunted. It’s celebratory and biting. The show cleverly tackles complex ideas/images. Kudos to cast and team.

Don't see it if you’re intolerant/prejudiced against people of faith or give no credibility to the positive impact Biblical writings have had on humanity.

See it if you want to experience something other than your typical Musical set up.

Don't see it if You don't have some understanding of the Book of Revelation or an open mind for a different theater experience.

Also The direction that Dustin Ceithamer decided to go with in order to tell this story, is one that should be commendable. Though it is not easy constructing a show using a story that is both factual and discursive, (and some of those difficulties presented itself through certain numbers), Duncan was still able to make it all work in a matter of 2 hours. While it wasn't a show I would typically be interested in seeing, I would still recommend seeing such a show for its divergent experience!... Read more Read less
