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.

Best thing I've seen live
"I love this book and movie so I knew I'd enjoy myself, but it also meant I thought I wouldn't be as emotionally impacted by the story. Despite knowing the plot, the performace touched me and I was remarkably invested the entire time. I was absolutely engrossed. The choreography was just incredible. The vocals gave me chills so many times I lost count. I cannot recommend this show enough. The only thing I did in NYC was see this show and it was worth every penny and the long bus rides to the point I may do it again soon. That's how special this show is. If you have the opportunity to see it, take it. You won't regret it."

A Must See
"I loved the book and movie as a teenager and the musical did not disappoint! Saw this with my 18 year old daughter and she’s now a huge fan as well. Everything about this show is outstanding - the cast, music, staging - everything! If you’re going to New York, get tickets! You won’t be disappointed. "

See this Show!
"If you are looking for a great show that will bring back memories of the original book & movie - Go see The Outsiders! The story stayed close to the book, and a few of the songs can be real tear jerkers. Our cast performed like ROCK STARS. Super strong vocals and a lot of the actors were in their first Broadway show. Great job! See this Show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Amazing
"The production of this show was fantastic as was the talent. Moved to tears during one sequence and the show was over before we knew it. It’s been years since I read the book or watched the movie so I wasn’t preoccupied by any deviation from originals. My whole family really loved it!"

Great take…..
"Performances were terrific and brought the characters to life. Music and choreography were amazing. Everyone in our party thoroughly enjoyed the show. Beautiful intimate theater, but would have enjoyed more legroom. "

Incredible!
"I have been to many great stage performances over the years, but I must say, this one puts the others to shame. It was the most engaging, passionate play I've ever experienced. Not only was the singing and the acting worthy of awards, but I have to add that the electronics, lighting, and manipulation of what you "think" is happening is beyond explanation. If you don't go see this, you'll never know what you missed!"

Amazing
"Great music. Talented cast. The use of fire, thunder, lightning, rain… it was all fantastic. Everything was outside the box and all the amazing choreography was spot on and just outstanding. The story was refreshing…. Not a love story between two partners but a love story between brothers and friends. Would definitely see it again. "

Great play
"I haven’t read the book, but I’ve heard of it. I wasn’t sure what to expect so I kept my expectations low. It was a great play. Kept me interest the entire time. The actors/actresses were great. The songs were great. The scenes were really amazing (no spoilers but definitely a lot of cool stuff). I’d see it again. "

"This show was so fantastic! I wouldn’t necessarily recommend for younger kids, but 12 and up would be good, just because there are some heavy topics to process. Original and beautiful lighting, choreography, and singing, my new favorite from Broadway. Highly recommend!!!"
