Actors, singing, staging exceptional!
"The energy, the voices, the choreography, were all fabulous. I loved it as a 70 year old grandparent, and my 14 year old granddaughter loved it too. Hard not to get teary eyed by the end. Should not be missed. The violence, though appropriate, would suggest to me that 12 year olds would be the youngest I would recommend it for. "

I cried
"The interpretation of the characters kept an old story interesting and relevant. Bring your Kleenex, you'll need it! Also, pretty much every seat in this smaller theater is a good seat.We had O2 & O4 but realized after we were seated that we could have saved some money and had an equally good experience. "

Simply lovely.
"Amazing acting, singing and lighting. The fight scenes were incredible, and again the singing was phenomenal! It was ever so slightly different from the book which made it interesting for people who know the ending."

An Electrifying, Gut-Punch of a Broadway Experience
"The Outsiders absolutely blew me away. From the moment the lights went down, it pulled me straight into Tulsa and never let go. The performances are raw, authentic, and dripping with emotion. You don’t just watch these characters, you feel every ounce of their pain, hope, and loyalty. The music? Absolutely phenomenal; hauntingly beautiful one moment, then heart-pounding the next. The choreography is kinetic and charged, turning fights and chases into pure stage poetry. And the set design is stunning; gritty, immersive, and so full of atmosphere it feels like you’re right there on the streets with the Greasers and the Socs. By the time the curtain fell, I was speechless. It’s not just a show—it’s a visceral, soul-shaking experience about found family, survival, and what it means to stay gold. If you can get a ticket, run."

Fantastic
"This show was amazing. The set was quite basic and they used it in many different ways and there was no need for extravagance. All actors were fantastic, sound was great and the overall experience was fantastic. Some of the cast even took time out after the show to meet every single person outside. Would absolutely go again."

Very moving!
"Loved the music! The performance was amazing! The talent was exceptional! There were 3 alternate performers but they excelled! The smoking was a turnoff but I understand that the book was written at a time when kids smoked more."

OUTSTANDING
"Phenomenal performance from outstanding cast! Kudos to cast, supporting cast, writers, producers and all the behind the scenes people. Loved the story line, music and choreography! As far as appropriate for children; small amount of foul language, so would depend on how exposed your child is to this "

Mesmerized by the cast, set, acting, song and dance.
" My friend and I loved it. Like the book, the character development grabs you by the soul and escorts you through a tale of social diversity and all of it’s failures and wins."

Absolutely Amazing!
"Wow, this show has it all! A timeless tell of teenagers told with such heart. The cast is absolutely amazing, even the understudies. The songs are so powerful. I would recommend everyone see this show at least once! We were lucky enough to catch their debut at the La Jolla Playhouse twice and have seen it in NY three times! And if you have the opportunity, sit in the front row. The front row was such a phenomenal experience! Fake blood splattered on us, "gravel" in our laps, rain, and Ponyboy gave my daughter the book at the end! Her best night ever! "

Greatly Exceeded My Expectations
"I chose this show because it won the 2024 Tony for Best Musical, so I thought it would be ok. The staging, singing, choreography, and story were phenomenal. I was left with goosebumps and tears which is rare for me. I don’t know if it was a special night, but towards the end of the second act the air was electric. "

Best Show Ever
"Just listen to the soundtrack before the show and you’ll understand. The raw emotion, the powerful vocals, the heartfelt story. Also the most incredible choreography, light and sound tricks and amazing special effects. My friend leaned over and whispered WOW during the big finale fight. You can’t miss this show, it’s one of a kind. "

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.
