Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson Tickets

One of the best shows I've seen in over 20 years

Kirk Douglas THeater - Culver City

I've been a theater subscriber at the LA Music Center for over 20 years. Then this show first opened in Culver City back in 2008, I bought tickets to have a "date night" with my (then) girlfriend. The show was outrageous - actors gallivanting all around the Kirk Douglas Theater, loud rock music, the foul language. But at the end of the show, I thought it was poignant, entertaining, irreverent, and historical. I attend the theater 6 to 8 times a year. This show made me yearn to learn more about Jackson, and with the recent arrival of "Hamilton" (coming to LA in 2017), I re-visited this play and the music. I would love for this show to come back to a local venue as I want to take my wife to see it. We are already planning to see "Hamilton" and this would be a great segue to that. And with all the controversy surrounding the 7th President and what he did that is being construed today as "barbaric, cruel and downright evil", let us not forget that Jackson won the Battle of New Orleans, abolished the Second Bank, and formed the Democratic Party, AND balanced the budget (zero deficit). I still consider him an American Hero

Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson

Abdo New River Room at the Broward Center - Ft Lauderdale

Wonderful show in an intimate setting. Lot's of cursing and sexual inuendo so if that offends you I would skip it. However, it depicts the tenure of a former U.S. President in a realistic manner. No sugar coating. If you like your history lessons presented this way, this show is for you. I brought my mother and children, ages 12 and 15, on Mother's Day and we all loved it.

Bloody Bloddy was great

Broward Center - Fort Lauderdale

We went to see this show at Broward Center not knowing what to expect. What a fantastic show. Great Acting , music and lively.

"Bloody, Bloody Andrew Jackson" Bloody AMAZING!

Studio One Riffe Center - Columbus

A rock musical about the seventh president of the United States? Who are they kidding? No one. For 100 minutes, the audience was transfixed at seeing American history played out in a gleefully anachronistic way, using modern language, musical styles, references, and profanity to explain what most of us probably slept through in eighth grade. Andrew Jackson is portrayed as a man driven by anger and hatred: of elites, of Native Americans, of Easterners, of just about anyone who has what he wants or won't bend to his way of thinking. Jackson pushed a policy of manifest destiny 70 years before the term was coined, seizing land from the Spanish, the French, and Indians, all in the name of American expansion. The cast is uniformly superb, with everyone (except Nick Lingnofski, who is outstanding as Jackson) playing multiple parts, but standouts include Ian Short's turn as Jackson's Indian friend and cat's paw, Black Fox; Drew Eberly as Martin Van Buren; and Amy Rittberger as Jackson's wife, Rachel. Given Available Light's policy of pay what you can, you have no excuse to miss this show, except the fact that it closes this coming weekend (October 14). Be there or in three months, you'll be claiming you WERE there!

BBAJ - Two Thumbs Up!

Studio One Riffe Center - Columbus

I'd give it two thumbs up! Provocative, interesting, rockin' music, historical, and profanely profound. Not for children. Sit about 6 rows back at least to take it all in...and to see all the activity that takes place around the audience.
