Outstanding but…
"The show is amazing, the music, the choreographing, the slow motion and acting all terrific. The music and singing was great and all the rumbles were fun to watch. However, I sat in the very front row, and although I was told when I bought the tickets that objects fly off the stage, I feel that safety glasses should’ve been provided for the first couple of rows just to protect their eyes as they were viewing. I felt having to shield my eyes frequently, took away some of the show for me."

Excellent! Blown Away!
"It was almost like The Outsiders was meant to be a musical! The songs fit so perfectly with the story and the cast was incredible. Three of the main characters were understudies and they were fantastic! I can't imagine the show being any better than it was!"

Everything I hoped for
"The Outsiders has been a favorite book of mine for many years. It’s got depth and addresses hard issues. I read the book again on the plane coming to NYC.
To watch the story unfold through song was beautiful.
The characters drew me in. The voice quality and acting quality were wonderful.
The creativity of the way the props were used was amazing.
I enjoyed getting a little more of Darry’s perspective throughout the performance.
Though there is no way you could have it be exactly like the book, the choices you made still kept with the feeling. (In the book, The part where Randy talks to Ponyboy and tells him he’s not going to rumble helps humanize the Soc community some.)
I’m more a big fan of all the swearing, but I also know the feeling that it needed to convey for this story.
I was emotionally moved throughout the whole performance. Probably the highlight of my trip- and that’s saying something!
Thank you so much!

Good Music, Great Story, Greater Theatrics
"The well-written blues/country tunes somehow take a back seat to superb implementation of stage effects, choreography, and creative use of props.
This retold story manages to preserve the impact of the original book while bringing enough to the table to not just stand, but shine on its own.
Be prepared to laugh, cry, and reckon with difficult topics in ways you may have missed during your grade school book review."

Turning this story into a musical was a perfect decision!
"The actors in this musical were so talented. They each deserved their own spotlight, seriously every single one of them. The music is so “of the moment”. The dancing and special effects are incredible. We especially loved how they used the stage and props. Don’t miss this show!

Timeless Celebration of a Legendary Storyline
"From opening scene to last bow, my family and I enjoyed every second of this show! We took our teenagers because they both enjoyed reading the book in middle school and their experience inspired many dinnertime conversations. The musical “ate” according to our kids, and brought my husband and I back to our youth. Absolutely a must see! "

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.
