Clever, Funny, Entertaining, Fluffy, Disappointing

See it if you can manage your expectations and ignore the hype. It's fun but feels like it is trying just a bit too hard. But musical lovers love it.

Don't see it if your taste runs more towards the subtle when it comes to humor, or if you don't have a ton of reference points for musical theater history.

Hilarious, Great writing, Fluffy, Must see, Entertaining

See it if you're a Broadway or Shakespeare fanatic or if you're not and want an insight on great Broadway musicals!

Don't see it if you have little to no theatre knowledge. Some of the references may go over your head and it won't be as funny to you.
