Best performance I’ve seen
"Wow - what a talented group of performers. I found their performances to be very moving. While it is impossible to fill the shoes of the original cast, this current cast was exceptional. I enjoyed how each character made subtle changes to their role to make it funny and to showcase their individuality. If I didn’t live 3000 miles away, I’d go back to watch it again. Leslie Odem, Jr. was a particularly special treat. We made the trek to see his performance and it didn’t disappoint. He’s very talented and has a voice as smooth of silk. This show means a lot to our family and it was a dream to see it live. Keep spreading joy!"

Blow us all away…
"We came for the return of LOJ, and was completely blown away by the whole cast. LOJ delivered excellence, the man deserves all accolades due his way. Special shout out to Tamar Greene (Washington) and Jisel Soleil Ayon (Angelica) who are sure to be big stars. Ham’s boys were hilarious, I believe our cast included Bryson Bruce, Ebrin Stanley and Marc dela Cruz. Top tier production - chorus/dancers, sets, music, lights - all of it. Everyone in the cast and crew delivered amazing performances. "

Such a memorable night!
"We loved how easily it was to get into the theatre and the fact that an original cast member was in the show. The theatre is beautiful and we sat in the last row and still had a great view. The lines to get a beverage were quick and the bartender on the mezzanine level was the best! I took my 8th
grader and it will be a night we will remember forever! It also did not hurt that Leslie Odom Jr was back!!"
