A revival of the longest-running Off Broadway musical of all time. Memorable songs including "Try to Remember" and "Soon It's Gonna Rain" frame the classic story of true love.

Delightful, Entertaining, Great staging, Quirky, Fluffy

See it if you want to understand why it's been running off Broadway for so many years, especially if you've never seen any production of it before.

Don't see it if you've seen it before. It's a fun, simple show and it's a great actor piece, but it's inherently flawed. Even when Aaron Carter is in it.

Humorous, Classic/somewhat dated, Cutesy, Delightful, Clever

See it if wanting a charming love-story without much surprise but that is designed to entertain in the purest way. It's a semi-rustic but fun staging.

Don't see it if you dislike: "cutesy," whimsical, and somewhat juvenile musicals that feel wholesome and comical in a benign way; broken fourth walls; camp. Read more

Community theater (savannah,ga), Clever, Entertaining, Funny, Hilarious

See it if I have not seen the New York productions which have run for decades (which should be proof enuf to go). I did c an intimate version & LOL'd!

Don't see it if It's a very small cast, so if U like BIG musicals w/ BIG orchestras then this may not b your cupOtea. Not a parent, U may not get some jokes
