"I saw The Outsiders on Broadway, and it completely exceeded my expectations. From the moment the curtain went up, I was captivated by the incredible performances, powerful storytelling, and breathtaking staging. Every member of the cast brought so much heart and emotion to their role, making the characters feel real and unforgettable.
The music, choreography, and lighting all came together beautifully to create an unforgettable experience. There were moments that gave me chills, and others that left me deeply moved. It's rare to see a production that is this visually stunning while also staying so emotionally authentic.
Whether you're already a fan of the story or experiencing it for the first time, The Outsiders is a must-see. It was simply amazing, and I'll be thinking about it for a long time. Bravo to the entire cast and creative team!"

Simply. Brilliant.
"Believe it or not, I am 62 years old and I have never seen the movie. Glad I haven’t. Would be constantly comparing the movie to the Broadway production, which was incredible.
The songs, vocals and choreography were raw and a bit rough around the edges, but it was perfect for the raw, rough around the edges story.
The acting performances were superb. Enough said about that.
The staging was simple and understated, but this was, I’m sure, by design so as to not detract and distract from the story and performances.
The special effects were also understated, but highly effective.
I was moved to tears… NO… cried like a baby several times.
I have seen well over 50 Broadway plays. This ranks among the beat. Would definitely see again. Highly recommended!
In a word…SUPERB.

What a great evening!
"I brought my four kids for their first Broadway show last night (ages 12-19). Two of us had read the book, and three had not (but had watched the movie). We all absolutely loved the performance and I would recommend to anyone. It’s a beautiful story. Thank you for giving me this memory with my kids. "

A thoughtful, entertaining show.
"Gritty, but also quite emotionally satisfying. I have not actually read the book, but my son had and that is why he wanted to see the musical version. I think that the fact that this show is based on a book considered to be a YA classic, must be what gives it its realism sociologically and it emotional heft. Every single actor in the show did a great job. Loved the songs and the dancing. It is a bit violent, though, so I would not recommend for children. Totally appropriate for teens and tweens, though.

Highly recommend - rain scene was stunning
"The Outsiders was absolutely incredible. The vocals, choreography, and fight scenes were phenomenal, and the set design—especially the rain scene—was stunning. The songs were catchy, the story was deeply moving, and the entire production was captivating from start to finish. I went with my 16-year-old daughter, and we both absolutely loved it. I highly recommend seeing this show!"

Amazing Performance!!
"I love how thorough the actors portray their characters. The understudy of Dallas performed the night I was there, and his performance really stood out to me. I’ve loved this book for many years, and the embodiment and expressions of the characters really made it come to life. The faculty was really friendly and made small talk before the show. I was warned of “the splash zone,” and it was very much true. Of all the musicals I could have seen with my first trip to New York, I chose this one to see, and I couldn’t be happier with that choice. "

Five Stars Isn't Enough
"My granddaughter and I went to NYC as an 8th grade graduation gift and because she wanted to see Hamilton....which we did. HOWEVER, we also decided to get tickets to see The Outsiders. It was absolutely wonderful and that is all she talked about to her parents. The story line is predictable but the music and choreography was brilliant. We sat in Orchestra E and enjoyed every minute of the show.
I wouldn't take very young children to this but after about 9 or 10, it would be delightful."

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.
