Jimmy Buffett Musical Escape to Margaritaville on Tour
Plan your escape to the new musical about the choices we make—and the people we become—once we’ve had a change in latitude.
ESCAPE TO MARGARITAVILLE is the musical comedy getaway featuring both original songs and your most-loved JIMMY BUFFETT classics, including “Come Monday,” “Volcano,” “Cheeseburger in Paradise,” and many more. With a book by Emmy® Award winner GREG GARCIA (“My Name is Earl,” “Raising Hope”) and Emmy® Award MIKE O’MALLEY (“Survivor’s Remorse,” “Shameless”), this rousing and refreshing new production is choreographed by Tony Award® nominee KELLY DEVINE (Come From Away, Rock of Ages) and directed by Tony Award® winner and La Jolla Playhouse Artistic Director CHRISTOPHER ASHLEY (Come From Away, Memphis).
Imagine a place where the sun is hot, the water’s warm, and the drinks are as cold as they are plentiful. Welcome to Margaritaville, the island paradise where city folk get away from it all, and the locals get into the kind of trouble you can almost always sweet talk your way out of. Take a break from your troubles, make some new friends at the bar, and kick back to the soothing sounds of the kettledrum. It doesn’t get much better than this. All you need now is a ticket.
ESCAPE TO MARGARITAVILLE More than a musical. It’s a way of life.
This delightful and colorful musical was very fun and entertaining! The cast did a marvelous job! Great voices and sound was good. The Ledge did not disappoint and is an awesome venue.
Everything ran smoothly from the entry to the DPAC all the way to finding our seats and the concession stands - No long waits for concessions or the restrooms - The production was very entertaining and the music of Jimmy Buffett went with the story brilliantly - I highly recommend this show!!!
a wonderful lively show beautiful music and dancing. love the story line, the acting was superb. the costumes colorful and seanery beautiful. would go again
light, fun script with wonderfully talented cast! great voices. very enjoyable as my return to enjoying shows at Shea's again after this past year
Great show, very talented cast. Plot line kept everything fun, just what we were looking for
High energy! Excellent music! Very funny! Worth every penny! Loved it!
Wonderful performance, Great Cast, Great Music. As much of Jimmy's repertoire of music are stories, or life lessons, the script of Escape to Margaritaville and the musical numbers in the show, were meshed perfectly, as if J.B,. himself, was right there, in person, telling the story. As followers of Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band, because of his musical stories and life lessons, this was not only entertaining, and it certainly was, but it reminded us to continue to Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On when we need to, and it made us realize, again, that in life, some of it's magic, some of it's tragic, but many of us have good lives all the way, two among the many lessons presented in the show.
Loved the storyline incorporated with all of the greatest songs. The tap dancing scene was one of my favorite parts. The entire cast was terrific.
Ok show. Scenery was pretty drab for a margaritaville production and there wasn’t much of it. Singing was so-so. Expected a much livelier event. Wouldn’t see it again. Shea’s Buffalo Theater is fabulous!!!
The joy of the story and music can be summed up with one word. BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
