A wonderful surprise
"I did not know much about the music of Alicia Keys so I did not know what to expect. The show was delightful. A young, enthusiastic cast with spectacular voices, wonderful music, a kick-ass band and a story any parent can relate to. One of the best shows I’ve seen in quite a while."

Hells kitchen was sheer heaven!
"I went into the show unsure of what I should expect. I’m a huge Alicia Keys fan, the cast brought the story and her music to such life that it bounced off the stage! The vocals were amazing, the dancing was so creative and energizing, and I thought it was just so well executed from beginning to end. I have never wanted to see again. But if someone offered me tickets to go tonight, I fly back to New York to go. It was just Tremendous!!!!"

Wonderful!
"Fantastic show with amazing and talented actors! I personally really enjoyed the physicality of the actors- how they moved their bodies with such energy, purpose, and passion. The messages of this show were nuanced and complex, yet made understandable for a diverse audience- police brutality, mother-daughter relationships, absent fatherism, grief, the importance of remembering Black legacies, coming of age. We very much enjoyed this show and it felt like so much more than an Alicia Keys jukebox. "

Amazing!
"I am a tremendous supporter of Alicia Keys and her music so the show was wonderful. It was great to see some of the songs sung differently and with a whole different meaning than when the albums were released. "

Very entertaining
"The first 2/3rds of first act is shaky. Too much internal dialogue for Ali and the script could use some work. Then it picks up with the amazing teacher performances and is great the rest of the way. Strong performances from Ali’s mom and dad and her teacher. The dancing is excellent and the stage is cool. Love the elevator and police effects. Would recommend. "

Empire State Performance
"My family and I were on holiday from the UK, and I wanted to book us into a Broadway show that resonated with where we were. To see “Hell’s Kitchen” just a few streets from HK itself was too good to miss. And it did not disappoint. The amount of talent on stage was exceptional, as was every performance from the cast, the dancers and the musicians. “Empire State of Mind” at the end of the show, on our last night in NY, was a fitting final and lasting memory. "

If you want a NY experience, this show is it!
"As a huge Alicia Keys fan, this show felt like it was made for me. Hearing her music woven into the score and knowing the production was inspired by her early life made the experience even more special for me. The production itself was exciting and incredibly immersive—perfectly capturing the essence of New York. From the set design to the music, everything felt authentic and alive, making it a truly memorable experience. While it was an exhilarating production brimming with New York energy, my experience wasn’t perfect. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see the principal actor as Ali. While the understudy did her best, there were moments when her voice was not up to the task for such a pivotal role. That said, the rest of the cast brought their A-game! Jessica Vosk was absolutely outstanding, delivering an incredible performance that brought both fire and nuance to her character. Brandon Victor Dixon was equally compelling, commanding the stage with a magnetic presence. Their vocal mastery elevated the show. Despite the minor disappointment with the understudy, Hell's Kitchen is a show I’d highly recommend to anyone looking for a thrilling night on Broadway. It’s a celebration of grit, passion, and everything that makes New York iconic. "

Amazing experience from beginning to end
"What an amazing experience! I am very picky when it comes to Broadway shows, let alone with a musical. This was by far the best Broadway musical performance I have seen this year. What an amazing cast! Every single person brought their unique talent on stage. I cried and laughed! My boyfriend and I cannot stop talking about it. If you are second guessing yourself, DO NOT! Please go and watch it. This is needed right now, especially in these trying times. "
