American Girl for the win!
Clowes Memorial Hall - Indianapolis
Absolutely loved this concert for my daughter (age 8) and her friends (ages 6-9). The message of facing your fears by forming a plan and working through it is amazing. The music was fun, engaging, and even educational (the AG “dolls” sang songs and introduced dances from various decades). Our girls were dancing the entire time and at the end stated: “I didn’t like it, I LOVED it!”

Granddaughter loved it!

Took my 9 year old granddaughter (and Samantha of course) - she can be a tough customer but absolutely loved it (“better than Disney world”!)!

Show was ok at best
Fisher Theatre - Detroit
Show was ok at best. Seemed like a very low budget show even though the tickets were not cheap. Concessions were stale and felt like they should’ve had better merchandise sales.

Fisher Theater Stage set up
Fisher Theatre - Detroit
Very disappointed that I paid top dollar to be in second row and views were obstructed by stage speakers on the floor with no mention of this prior to booking. For American Girl concert, there was no monitoring of girls hugging the wall in front of the stage further obstructing our views. Many stood there for over 1/2 hour and my granddaughter couldn’t see over them.

We can say we went, blah!
Fisher Theatre - Detroit
It was ok. I felt the actors did a great job at being the characters of the dolls. I feel the venue could have did a better job at getting the word out that the American Girl dolls were allowed to be brought in. We bought pretty upclose tickets so my granddaughter could see and they allowed people to be in the isles standing which prevent her from seeing unless she stood up on her chair. People get what they pay for and should be asked to stay in front of their own seat. The story line they were trying to promote ,the actors did a great job.

American Girl Live was fabulous
Atlanta Symphony Hall - Atlanta
The music, the dancing, the interaction between the historical girls was so much fun! The show is very creative and seeing the dolls come alive was wonderful. Courtney stole the show (in a nice way). She is just so outgoing and loves her life! I love them all

American Girl Live on Tour
Perhaps it was inevitable that, having conquered nearly every other medium, American Girl dolls would finally make their way to the stage. The new Broadway-style musical American Girl Live is a natural extension of The American Girl Revue, which was performed in American Girl stores in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles during the early 2000s.
Beloved by children and adults alike since the company was founded by Pleasant Rowland in 1986, the 18-inch American Girl dolls and their accompanying book series have evolved from an independent start-up operating out of a rented warehouse into a thriving Mattel toys subsidiary, with more than 32 million dolls and 157 million books sold to date.
The American Girl Revue told the back stories of the company's Historical Characters line, and American Girl Live expands upon that concept in an even more entertaining way. The setting is Camp American Girl, a fictitious sleep-away compound where five campers, a counselor, and their doll friends interact with six iconic American Girl characters — Rebecca (1914), Nanea (1941), Maryellen (1954), Melody (1964), Julie (1974), and Luciana (2018's Doll of the Year) — through song and dance.
In keeping with American Girl's commitment to female empowerment, The American Girl Review was created by an all-woman creative team consisting of producer Simone Gianfrancesco, director Gina Rattan, writer and lyricist Sandy Rustin, composer Meg Zervoulis, and choreographer Emilie Renier. (Actress Julia Roberts' Red Om production company created the brand's first movie, Samantha: An American Girl Holiday, in 2004.)
In 1995, American Girl expanded its line beyond historical dolls to include characters and situations from contemporary life. Pleasant Rowland wanted her characters to take themselves seriously and to participate in American life, so her books covered important historical topics such as child labor, poverty, racism, slavery, and war. American Girl characters support equality in all its forms. And the limited-edition release of the homeless American Girl character Gwen in 2009 revealed that the company wouldn't avoid controversy, either.
Ticket holders are welcome to bring their own dolls to American Girl Live. Whether they do or not, the interactive experience will fuel the audience's imagination and promote the positive power of girlhood with or without their smaller companions.
