The cast is incredibly talented—truly beyond the usual—and every number was electric. The whole vibe was cool, fresh, and full of energy. I enjoyed every second and can’t recommend it enough. If you get the chance, don’t miss it!"

Had me jumping in my seat!
"The actors truly brought out the personalities of the characters. The actress who played Alicia Keys made you believe it was her at 17. They were all witty, funny and the singing and dancing was fantastic. Yes when there were serious parts, they definitely touched my heart. "

A New York Delight
"This was my second time seeing the show. The performers and their vocals blew me away for the second time. Kecia Lewis is a standout. Alicia Keys music is always good and the vocals across the cast are extraordinary! Great for NYC locals or for family/friends visiting."

Let me tell you….
"Hell’s Kitchen was an amazing show that resonated deeply with me, reminding me of my own teenage years. The relationship between Ali and her mother was particularly touching, as it illustrated the complexities of familial bonds and the struggles of growing up. Additionally, Ali's first love added a layer of nostalgia, making me reflect on my own experiences. The actors brought these characters to life with such authenticity that I felt a connection to their journeys. Overall, I believe it was one of the best plays I have ever seen, as it perfectly captured the essence of youth and self-discovery."

Great show
"I really thought the sound was too loud and overpowering . The music often over powered the beauty of the actor’s voices . That being said, the talent was brilliant and the story was quite good. "

A must see
"The music and dancing were just fantastic and the storyline was timeless. I was sitting with a group of highschoolers, all of whom I think were imagining themselves on stage. It was such an uplifting but realistic message for them."

An all time favorite
"I’ve been to musicals on Broadway since I can remember. As a Senior Citizen now I can honestly say this is an all time favorite. I’ve always been a fan of Alicia and her music so I was afraid it would disappoint. It did just the opposite and thrilled me. Great story line, acting, dancing and of course the songs!"

Sat glued for entire performance!
"This was my 2nd time seeing this production… and I will go again! Keeps you engaged and wondering what comes next. The flow of the scenes is seamless! Appropriately designed set and musical selections. It draws you in and you go through a mass of emotions! It was Father's Day so there was a discussion with a couple of the actors (Allie and Davis) and the playwright following the performance."

Heartfelt and uplifting!
"All the music was fantastic, and the staging was used brilliantly to make the most of a small space. Our only disappointment was we were not informed an understudy was playing Ali. However, she did quite well in the role. The actors playing the mother and Miss Liza Jane were particularly outstanding. "

Amazing theatrical performance
"This is a wonderful production based on the life of Alicia Keyes. The struggles teens experience growing up and trying to find their way. The story also featured the impact her mother and her "absent" father had on her life. Profound musical numbers which were all written by her."

What an experience
"The show was awesome, great choreography, vocals and storyline. Theatre seats very tight, but manageable. Toilet queuing at intermission was ridiculous, only two toilets, go before you get to rhe theatre. A definite must see."
