"Excellent, engaging, and deeply intriguing — our entire family, including our 14- and 16-year-olds, loved it. The show is edgy enough and full of incredible music to completely grab and hold their attention.
The story explores big emotions, teenage angst, complicated (and sometimes hurtful) parent-child dynamics, and the realities of social, economic, and racial differences and injustices. It’s raw, heartfelt, and beautifully told.
One note for sensitive viewers: there’s a brief scene with intense strobing red lights (representing police arrival) that can be jarring from a sensory standpoint, and there’s also a portrayal of a first teenage sexual encounter. As long as parents and teens are comfortable with that, this is the show to take your teens to in NYC.
And of course — Alicia Keys is amazing."

Wasn’t sure then indeed, it did not disappoint!!
"The show started a tad slow, so I was concerned, I spent too much money on expensive tickets for a family of five with three young male adults. But then the show crescendoed and just kept going with an explosive ending. It was awesome musical fun, such talent!!!!"

"While watching the first 20 minutes or so, I came to expect a rehash of so many stories of young love constrained by parental expectations and meddling. But then it took a turn - a very poignant treatment of the challenges of parenting and growing up in dangerous times...highly recommend!"
