Loved Hamilton!
The cast was sooooo good at not only singing but the dancing and acting was 10/10!
I know the deaths weren’t real, but I literally had tears in my eyes. I’ve never seen or listened to Hamilton and I was obsessed from the start! Amazing, incredible show!

Kept the promise alive
With any Disney production, the story is known before you show up. So the performance has to surprise you and captivate you. And this did. The unexpected fun from the standout performances of the three friends was magic. And, of course, the leads were all engaging. Best mid-week performance I have ever seen. My teen daughter and her younger sister both still can’t stop singing and smiling… a day later.

Brought my kids
And while I don’t regret it, I can say this isn’t for everyone’s children. Otherwise, the show itself was incredible. The cast was excellent, set was beautiful. Definitely glad we could make it!

Wonderful show!
We loved the show. The acting, singing and special effects were amazing. I was glad that I had seen the movie previously. It helped me completely understand the plot. I understand why it received so many Tony nominations and awards!

Energetic funny show
This show pokes fun at religion, sex and other established subjects. It is not a show for conservative mind. But the dancers are good, the songs are nice. A very enjoyable time.

Thrilling, frightful, amazing.
This was an incredible show. The lighting, sound, and special effects were truly next level. I would absolutely recommend it. I found myself in awe for much of the performance because I've never seen special effects executed so brilliantly in a Broadway production. The cast was outstanding, and the costumes and script were equally impressive.
That said, there are two things prospective audience members should know:
1. Familiarity with Stranger Things is a must.
If you haven't watched the full Stranger Things series, this may not be the show for you. The story relies heavily on characters, events, and themes from the series, so being up to date will make the experience far more enjoyable and easier to follow.
2. It may be too intense for some children. There were quite a few young children in the audience, and many seemed genuinely frightened. I attended with my 12-year-old son, and he covered his eyes (and screamed) during several parts of the show. Watching scary scenes on a TV screen is one thing, but experiencing them live, with immersive effects and performers right in front of you, feels much more real and intense.
Overall, this was one of the most visually impressive Broadway shows I've ever seen, and a must-see for Stranger Things fans.

About Our Broadway Show Reviews
Broadway reviews give theatergoers valuable insight into what to expect before purchasing tickets.
Reading both customer reviews and professional critic reviews helps paint a complete picture of a show’s performances, production quality, and overall audience experience.
Whether you’re deciding between a long-running musical or a brand-new play, reviews are one of the best tools for making an informed choice.
Why Verified Customer Reviews Matter
Our customer reviews are written by verified ticket buyers, ensuring that every opinion comes from someone who has actually attended the show.
These authentic Broadway reviews highlight everything from standout performances to theater comfort, giving you real feedback you can trust.
Unlike unverified sources, our platform makes it clear which comments are genuine, helping you sort through opinions with confidence.
The Value of Professional Critic Perspectives
Critic reviews, on the other hand, offer professional perspectives on direction, writing, acting, and staging.
By comparing critic commentary with verified customer feedback, you’ll see how a show resonates both with audiences and experts.
This balanced approach makes it easier to decide whether a show is right for you, whether you’re planning your first Broadway trip or adding another production to your must-see list.
