Rating: 5 out of 5 My new favorite musical
by jecats on 6/10/15Cadillac Palace - ChicagoOnce was amazing. I was enthralled throughout the entire show. The music was wonderful, the voices and musical talent were out of this world. My companion had seen the show 2 years ago in New York, and she said the Chicago cast was better than the New York cast.

Rating: 5 out of 5by Anonymous on 6/10/15Cadillac Palace - Chicago Loved the play! I even took a chance and brought my 12 year old son along. He enjoyed the music and all of the humor in the play. Not so much the love story part of it but that is to be expected for his age. I thought the music was wonderful and was really glad we went.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Just wonderful
by ElderJ on 6/10/15Cadillac Palace - ChicagoI was a big fan of the film, so my expectations were high going in. They clearly surpassed them, creating a beautiful stage piece with minimal sets and a focus on character and music. The openness in which the show started was great, where they allowed audience members on stage as the actors opened with some musical numbers. The two lead actors had clear chemistry, and the supporting cast, which was minimal in the film, was distinct and strayed from any caricatures. I am stunned that the Broadway version has closed, as this is one of the best musicals I've seen.

by Darrellynn on 6/10/15Cadillac Palace - ChicagoOnce was really great!!! The music was fantastic! The only thing I can say about the theatre itself was there were not enough bar staff. The line was way to long before the play or during intermission to get a beverage. 1 person for the whole theatre!
