"Great first timer, but unbelievable it is his first time on Broadway! The females killed it; clearly one has won a Tony and one will soon. To play David is extremely hard, it was an iconic role; fantastic job pulling it off. Entire cast was energy and talent. Set design and adaptations were perfect for the stage."
"As a Gen Xer who has been obsessed with the Lost Boys movie since she was a teen, I have been following the progression of this production since it was first announced. When my favorite Broadway actress, Shoshana Bean, was announced as Lucy I knew I had to get to NYC to see it.
The full cast was simply perfection--from Tony-award-winning Bean and Bourzgui to the oiled up sax player, who provided a comedic break that was true to the movie's cultlike fandom, and every actor in between. The original songs are exactly what the play needs to move it through the action and give a voice to each character's inner self. The sets are sublime and utilize every inch of the stage space in a way that captures your eyes and keeps them focused on everything going on.
There were a few subtle differences from the movie that I was not sure I would like, but by the time I got to the end, I realized how those changes were integral to the themes of this updated, more robust version of the story.
For anyone who loves the original Lost Boys movie, or vampires, or 80s movies, or theater, or Shoshana---you have to see this yourself! If I lived closer I would see this again and again. This is truly a phenomenal production that kept one of my absolute favorite movies true to itself while giving it a stage glow up that I did not know my favorite vampire tale needed. "

One of the best new shows on Broadway
"I'm usually skeptical about musicals that rehash popular 80s films, but The Lost Boys was truly amazing. Some of the scenes were so powerful that my husband and I looked at each other, and we both mouthed"wow." I cried, which is something that rarely happens during a musical. The effects and backdrops were amazing. I don't know how this will work as a traveling show, but I will certainly see it when it comes through Texas. "

Brilliant! 10/10 No notes
"This is easily in our top 5 musical productions of all time. The cast were superb, singing sensational and acting on point. The set design and production was in a class of its own. Thrilling, attention to detail and conveyed a story all on its own. Special effects, sound and lighting took this production to the next level. We wanted to pause and rewind just to watch parts over again! We were completely blown away by the professionalism of this production including some absolutely wonderful choreography and original songs. We wish we were staying another night in New York just to see it again!"

"What an incredible show from start to finish! Technically innovative & brilliant, outstanding performances by the entire cast. If you’re a devotee of the 1987 film, you will not be disappointed! I could tell how much this cast enjoys each other-the energy, creativity, and overarching theme of family and self couldn’t be more timely. I can’t wait to go again! BRAVO!!!"

A spectacular show with the special effects and talent to back it
"This performance has been called a spectacle and for good reason. The set and special effects are some of the best seen on Broadway in a long time. The show keeps the plot and essence of the 80’s movie with new dramatic flare. I would highly recommend this show for anyone who is seeking an eye capturing show that you can’t look away from. The cast brings a level of talent and raw embodiment of their characters that creates a complexity on stage and for the audience to view it. Spooky and creepy details throughout the show adds a level of excitement to an already dramatic retelling of this tale."

Amazing performances, exciting set design
"We loved the show. We had no idea there was an understudy until later because everyone in the cast blew us away. The set was fantastic, but I wouldn't recommend our seats in the back of the orchestra because you feel like you are missing out on some of the scene when the actors are on the third level."

About
The Lost Boys, A New Musical
Get ready for the ride of your life with The Lost Boys, the most Tony Award®-winning new musical of the year. It’s a “thrilling, blockbuster event” (People), “a breathtaking adventure unlike any musical seen before” (New York Post), and “the best new musical of the season” (The Washington Post).
When Michael moves to California with his younger brother Sam and their mother Lucy, he’s desperate to leave his old life behind and start fresh. A wild night out on the boardwalk finds him in the shadows of Santa Carla and brings him face-to-face with David, the magnetic leader of a local rock band. David and his bandmates offer Michael freedom, adventure, and the connection he’s been longing to find. But when the band’s dark secret finally comes out, Michael must decide how far he’s willing to go to belong.
Based on the classic Warner Bros. film, The Lost Boys is “a jaw-dropping, rock-fueled must-see” (Cosmopolitan) featuring Tony-winning performances from Shoshana Bean and Ali Louis Bourzgui. Directed by three-time Tony winner Michael Arden (Maybe Happy Ending, Parade), the production features Tony-nominated music and lyrics by The Rescues, a book by Tony nominees David Hornsby and Chris Hoch, choreography by Tony nominees Lauren Yalango-Grant and Christopher Cree Grant (Parade), and music supervision by Tony nominee Ethan Popp (Tina). The Lost Boys is produced by James Carpinello, Marcus Chait, and Patrick Wilson.
