THE UNTOLD TRUE STORY OF A BROOKLYN KID WHO BECAME A CHART-BUSTING, SHOW-STOPPING, AWARD-WINNING AMERICAN ICON
Created in collaboration with Neil Diamond himself, A BEAUTIFUL NOISE is the uplifting true story of how a kid from Brooklyn became a chart-busting, show-stopping American rock icon. With 120 million albums sold, a catalogue of classics like "America," "Forever in Blue Jeans," and "Sweet Caroline," an induction into the Songwriters and Rock and Roll Halls of Fame, a Grammy® Lifetime Achievement Award, and sold-out concerts around the world that made him bigger than Elvis, Neil Diamond's story was made to shine on Broadway-and head out on the road across America.
Like Jersey Boys and Beautiful: The Carole King Musical before it, A BEAUTIFUL NOISE THE NEIL DIAMOND MUSICAL is an inspiring, exhilarating, energy-filled musical memoir, that tells the untold true story of how America's greatest hitmaker became a star, set to the songs that defined his career.
Great performance. Cast was amazing, music was great and the story telling by way of song lyrics was perfect.
The cast was great. Nick Fridiani sounded so much like Neil Diamond! Totally enjoyed the show!
The storyline along with the music was tremendous. The man who played Neil Diamond was truly phenomenal! Song selection and sound was great. Sheas is a beautiful venue. Hoping to see this show again soon.
A Wonderful Performance telling the story of "a frog who dreamed of being a king, and then became one,"and enjoying the amazing nostalgic music of Neil Diamond. It was an awesome night of singing along with the cast of A Beautiful Noise and learning the historic story of Neil from Flatbush.
The show was amazing. The voices, the dancing, the acting. I loved every minute
I've been to many Broadway and off-Broadway shows; however, this show cut the cake! The stage effects, lighting, and live performances of the actors, actresses, and live band were simply amazing. As an audience member, you not only feel the energy, but you are also a part of it. Every single person: cast, crew, theatre staff, and the general audience participates in this show, and it was a much-needed escape from the grinds of daily life. I would gladly pay to see this show again and again!
When I closed my eyes it sounded like Neil Diamond. Lead actor was very good
Show was so phenomenal that I just had to see it twice! Can't wait until they circle back to Rochester next season!
It was fabulous…we loved it!! Great story, wonderful singing and dancing. Can’t wait to go again.
One of the best broadway musicals I have ever witnessed. Nick Fradiani was the perfect choice to play Neil Diamond in this performance, he was excellent. Overall a very entertaining performance by everyone involved.
My daughter and I have attended many Broadway Grand Rapids events and jointly declare A Beautiful Noise as our 1st or 2nd favorite of all time. Brilliantly told through an older Neil in therapy sessions, we stayed engaged waiting for the big book to give us lyrics for the next song. Nick Fradiani was utterly amazing in portraying Neil Diamond as I will always remember him. Traveling through Nick’s life of both trials and tribulations made me laugh and cry as I too can reflect on had I made other choices along the way. Loved everything abut ABeautiful Noise. ♥️
The voices were fantastic. Great storyline, and of course you can't beat the music.
Great Show, performers were fantastic. story was heartwarming.... Would attend again without a question....
What a fantastic show. Nothing new for Grand Rapids who always brings the best of the best in Broadway shows. The singers were out of this world and if you closed you eyes, at times you’d think it was Neil Diamond himself up on stage “singing his songs”. In addition the dancers were awesome. Wow!
It was an outstanding, excellent perfomance. My husband and I both enjoyed the show immensely.
A Beautiful Noise was a Fantastic musical! It cleverly told the life story of Neil Diamond and Nick Fradiani was amazing in the lead role as Neil Diamond. I would recommend this musical to everyone!
Close your eyes and you’ll believe you’re at a Noel Diamond concert. Show contains most Diamond hits, expertly woven around an interesting story that imparts insights into the artist even for lifelong fans. Also a visual treat!
Couldn't believe how similar the Neil Diamond actor sounded and presented himself as Neil Diamond. Great actors throughout and loved the honest and open story of Neil's life.
Just loved everything about this show! Best Broadway show I have seen in years! Loved it so much, as I left the theatre after seeing it for the first time, I bought a ticket to return the next day to see it again! I was able to get a single seat in Row C, so got a perfect view the second time around. This show will touch your heart and uplift you as well! All the actors and music were fabulous! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love coming to DeVos for plays! It was a little challenging parking because of the Hands Off demonstration but I'm sure that was the case everywhere. And I parked all right and got in all right. I really loved the show, but I have to say it wasn't one of my favorites I like to see a lot of plays two or three times even and I don't think I would see this one again. I guess I just didn't want to know that much about Neil Diamond and his depression. I'm coming to see Hamilton for about the 10th time, haha, and I'm really looking forward to that!
