"I read The Outsiders in junior high which was a long time ago and I was intrigued to see it as a musical. It was recommended to us by friends in education. The story was pure 1960's but it stood the test of time. It is a very serious play so not sure I would take young children. The acting and singing voices of the cast were excellent."

O!M!G!
"If you've never read the book or even watched the movie... it's ok! They do both justice! This was the absolute best ever! Entertaining all the way through! This was my first Broadway Show so this was an awesome pick! To be honest you can sit anywhere in the theater and enjoy it just the same in my opinion! I laughed. I cried! I gasped....I didn't want it to end! The only thing I wish is they'd let us pull out cameras out at the end to take a Pic of the cast bowing! Other than that, I have no critiques...PS the show I attended did not have the original lead... his understudy did an amazing job!!! The singing was phenomenal! Ok that's enough... but I could go on forever! "

A great show!
"Loved this performance, couldn’t stand the audience - lots of screaming from girls when the male leads came on stage and throughout the show. It got old quick. I hope that was just the one night I was there.
The performance was excellent. This was a large cast with the socs and the greasers and they were all incredibly talented. Lots of cool effects on stage that I’ve not seen at other shows. Highly recommend. "

WOULD WATCH AGAINN
"Outsiders was my fav book and movie growing up but the musical was a whole other level! The actors were amazing. The acting and singing! Their voices were so nice i wanted to keep hearing them sing. I also never really cry in musicals but the way they expressed some of the scenes made me feel the emotions. I came back home and could not stop talking about ittt! My fav character has always been sodapop and i can safely say that thats never gonna change after watching this musical!!"

Great over all musical
"Visuals, sound, songs, and performers were amazing. Not a bad seat in the house either, we were last row top center, and thought the view was great. In a similar vein to West Side Story / Grease but I prefer this to those 100%. Great pace and length of the play too. Great for first timers, easy to follow along with the story and the songs are catchy, almost pop, and not overly "musical theater".
We took our 11 year old, we had no issues, there is some language, 1 F, several Sh!ts and lots of GDs. Violence is really well done with sound and lighting, not gruesome. Content is heavy without being disturbing or scaring. Parents know their kids best, so hope that helps!"

AMAZING SHOW
"I read the book and saw the movie as a teen in the 80's. This show reignited so many memories, and was such a great adaptation of the original novel by SE Hinton. The songs and choreography made the novel come to life on stage! We took our family with ages ranging from 14 to 55, and EVERYONE loved it. The performers came out after the show and graciously spent time signing autographs and speaking with fans. It was an absolute delight."

Best of the Best!
"I have been a huge fan of The Outsiders for 25 years, my daughter became a huge fan after reading it in school last year. My daughter is also a huge fan of musical theatre, she is very involved in it at school, & her dream is to act on Broadway. This was a trip of her choosing for her birthday, she wanted specifically to see The Outsiders. It was an experience of a lifetime, everything about the play was stunning, the scene transitions were flawless, the acting was on point. To top it off, the actors after the show were the sweetest, they didn’t leave a single person out for signatures and stayed interactive the entire time. We have not stopped talking about how phenomenal it was. "

Amazing
"The fact there isn’t a bad seat in the house makes this show great for all. A little tight for me but I’m 6’4” tall. If tall or on the bigger side try to get a row seat or a balcony seat. The show was wonderful from the very beginning to the end. Had you on the edge of your seat the whole show. A must see. "

"holy cow, this was the best show I have ever seen, and I have seen quite a few of the big popular ones. The best choreography, dancing, music, singing, etc. I was speechless with how powerfully they portrayed certain scenes, and I was just blown away by how carefully and respectfully they portrayed possibly difficult topics. It was the best money I've ever spent, you need to see this show"

About
The Outsiders
The winner of the Tony Award® for Best Musical is The Outsiders. This classic coming-of-age story takes you to Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1967, where Ponyboy Curtis, his best friend Johnny Cade, and their family of Greaser “outsiders” dream about who they want to become in a world that will never accept them. The Outsiders features a “tuneful and soul-bearing” (New York Stage Review) original score, “high-octane choreography” (New York Magazine), and a “sensational young cast” (The Wall Street Journal) that brings the show to life.
