Great singing, Great acting, Entertaining, Ambitious, Slow

See it if You love musicals and are eager to support a hard working cast of seasoned and up and coming performers.

Don't see it if You're interested in strong plot lines, creative staging or unique set design. This set and the use of it reminded me of Color Purple. Read more

Entertaining, Slow, Great singing, Disappointing

See it if you don't mind a somewhat amateurish production with a charming cast who give it their all.

Don't see it if you want something highly polished.

Entertaining, Ambitious, Good music

See it if you enjoy new - work in progress off Broadway musical shows. Very nice to see actor-singers actually play musical instruments on stage.

Don't see it if Songs have only limited variance. Except saxofone, the stage instrument performers have poor skills. Show needs good amount of polishing.

Entertaining, Great singing, Quirky, Thought-provoking, Great staging

See it if you enjoy small budget musicals. Clever use of the theater in the staging.

Don't see it if you only enjoy big budget musicals with signature songs.

Great singing, Enthusiaistic cast, Silly book, Lovely music

See it if you can overlook the hackneyed, predictable plot, blah lyrics, and focus on the gorgeous voices & great tunes.

Don't see it if you hated "Bright Star" because this has many similarities. It, too, had a dumb plot & gorgeous music. Read more

Great singing, Entertaining, Ambitious, Great jazz band

See it if you enjoy a jazz musical concerning social and political issues of the South in the 1930's. Special note to the live band.They were amazing.

Don't see it if you don't like musicals. A young cast which I believe have the potential to have a great career.

Entertaining

See it if you like a jazz musical. The young cast is exuberant and fun to watch. The story is a little weak, but it is still a fun play.

Don't see it if don't like musicals or shows that are a bit predictable.

Clever, Delightful, Ambitious, Great singing, Relevant

See it if You want to see up & coming actors in a heart-warming show, great singing by Jelani Alladin & Jordan Tyson, if you support young actors.

Don't see it if You expect a Tony winning show, elaborate stage, huge theatre or a show that is tight. Needs a bit of work. Read more
