Great dancing and singing
"I love listening to Alicia Keys music. To learn a general idea of how she began playing the piano and of her growing up was interesting. The dancers were very energetic. The actors voices were excellent. A definite toe tapper!"

One of the Best Shows I’ve Seen
"“Hell’s Kitchen” drew me in from start to finish. The characters felt real and multi-dimensional, and were likable in spite of, and sometimes because of, their imperfections. The show has many layers - mother-daughter relationship, first love, racial issues, loss and grief, finding your place in the world - but does not beat you over the head with any of them, allowing you to care because the characters care. The music and choreography tell much of the story, as well, with songs and voices that are sweet, wistful, passionate, or powerful, as the situation calls for, and dancing that is lyrical, organic, and beautiful - an extension of the scene rather than something that has been tacked onto it. I left the theater feeling inspired, moved, and deeply satisfied. I highly recommend “Hell’s Kitchen”, and hope that I will have the chance to see it again."

Wonderful show. Music, dancing vocals first rate. Acting good.
"Liked it all. Had a great time all four of us. (Wife, son, daughter). Kids knew some of the music far better than I. But I also loved the music. "

Full of energy and talent
"We saw the matinee show and the understudies in it were phenomenal! So much talent and energy! The musical score fit the story perfectly and the clarity of voices was great. From a seating perspective - if you sit in the balcony, be aware the angle of the steps to your seat is very steep."

Incredible voices
"While I would’ve loved Alicia Keys herself, the singing gave me goosebumps and not just from the lead playing Alicia but the whole cast. My wife who is not crazy about musicals also thoroughly enjoyed the show. Admittedly, I’m not crazy about performances that sound too “broadway” but didn’t get that feel here. Songs were right in line with what you’d expect from Alicia Keys. Interesting coming of age storyline but the clear draw is the voices and songs so if you like Alicia Keys and/or that type of music then you will love this show. "

Off the charts, the singers, the dancers, will move your heart!
"Everything about this musical will lift your heart. Of course the music of Alicia Keys alone should be a reason to see this show. The night we went Alicia Keys was there and came on stage to donate $1 million $ to Keep a Child Alive Foundation. $1 from every ticket goes toward this foundation. Every performer singing knocked our socks off, in fact, we're still looking for our socks ;0)"

A Dream Come Through
"I’m a huge fan of Alicia Keys’ music. To hear them masterfully sung by someone other than her adds a different level of appreciation for her craft and the dynamism of her work in the music industry. "

An Invigorating Celebration of Family, Music, and Dance
"The acting, singing, music and dancing was brilliant--not one weak spot anywhere! The show lifted my heart with its beautiful, wrenching story of a mother and daughter--and her magnificent piano teacher. It's a celebration of all kinds of love as the daughter moves and sings and matures through the pain and joy of her amazing life, her first romance, her relationship with her gifted, but neglectful father, and her discovery of how making music channels all the emotions and struggles. I want to go back and see it again!"

Hits Every Emotion!
"I have seen many shows in my lifetime but I have to say this was definitely in my top TWO. It touched every emotion. The voices were gorgeous and the choreography excellent. There was nothing I did not love about this performance. My three friends felt the same way. We all walked out of the theater with smiles on our faces and raved the entire way home. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to be completely entertained for a few hours. Well done!!!!!"

Brought Family This Time!
"Last night I returned to New York for a second Hells Kitchen performance; bringing sisters, my step daughter and a dear friend. The show is outstanding; energetic and brings laughter and tears. Alicia Keys made an appearance to celebrate 300,000 tickets sold and to share her charity for children. I enjoyed the show as much as my first attendance and would definitely see it again! Bravo! "
