  ‘‘...a completely immersive theater experience, lorded over by a DJ who provides some narration, teaches the occasional line dance, and spins the show's worldbeat dance tracks, which pulsate with groovy funk backbeats and island-friendly rhythmic rolls.’’

  ‘‘A new musical that’s so exhilarating and such a great time that it’s easy to recommend it without hesitation.’’

  ‘‘...the exciting new poperetta conceived by the musician (and former Talking Head) David Byrne sets a new standard for audience participation.’’

  ‘‘...an exuberant musical...The irresistibly danceable music, which starts with an innocent (not to say saccharine) ballad and whips itself into a disco frenzy, is what tears up the house.’’
