About
A rotating line-up of guest stars (including Grammy® winner Fantasia, now through Feb. 9; k.d. lang, Feb. 11–March 9; and Toni Braxton & Babyface, March 18–30) headline AFTER MIDNIGHT on Broadway. With 25 sensational singers and dancers, this thrilling new musical brings the glamour of Harlem's Golden Age to a whole new generation.
At the heart of AFTER MIDNIGHT is The Jazz at Lincoln Center All-Stars, 17 world-class musicians hand-picked by Grammy winner Wynton Marsalis. The timeless songs of Duke Ellington and his contemporaries––woven together by the prose of Langston Hughes––come to life in an evening of cutting-edge song and dance. This experience puts you at the center of one of Harlem’s legendary nightclubs. Award-winning fashion designer Isabel Toledo reinvents the distinctive looks of the era with dazzling costumes. And, as directed and choreographed by Warren Carlyle, AFTER MIDNIGHT proves that jazz is more than music––it's a state of mind.

by Jerry25 on 6/27/14Brooks Atkinson Theatre - New YorkA rare night where the smiles only give way to cheers and applause. Thoroughly entertaining with so many moments of flat out brilliance, talent and athleticism, your biggest regret will be that the show ends. If there was ever proof that leaving your audience wanting more and not wanting to go home, After Midnight is it.

by GW24 on 6/25/14Brooks Atkinson Theatre - New YorkAfter Midnight is a great show to see, it was like seeing One of my favorite movies live, Cotton Club with an all star cast including Gregory Hines.

by Blktejano on 6/25/14Brooks Atkinson Theatre - New YorkI bought tickets for After Midnight before I heard the show was being cancelled. What a spectacular show. The acting and music met my standards and exceeded. Patti LaBelle Dule Hill and the entire cast kept me waiting for the next note. I'm truly glad I got a chance to see the show.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Outstanding Play!
by Temperance2 on 6/25/14Brooks Atkinson Theatre - New YorkAfter Midnight was an awesome performance. The choreography, energy, and infectious cast interaction was phenomenal. It clearly captured Duke Ellington’s music and the Cotton Club era. Any evocative content, which could have been lewd, was presented tastefully. Patti LaBelle was unmistakably the icing on an already scrumptious cake. Upon departure, notwithstanding the standing ovation, the excited chatter and broad smiles indicate many left the performance feeling exhilarated. I left, always considering time management and finances, feeling the 1.5 spectacular hours was a well spent expenditure.

by Pixie139 on 6/25/14Brooks Atkinson Theatre - New YorkPatti LaBelle blew me away - not just her voice, but her energy and the way she just became a part of the company. The music was played so we were dancing in our seats. And the singers seemed to experience the music they were singing: blues were sad, other songs were joyous. I can't even come up with adjectives to describe the dancers. They literally threw themselves into the performances; and each dancer seemed able to perform a variety of styles. The have to be seen to understand how truly exciting and wonderful they are. Dule Hill was perfect as the emcee. He read the lines of poetry, then slid out of sight. His own dancing was not shabby at all, but he did not try to upstage anyone. I would have enjoyed seeing more of him, but I understand why his role needed to be understated for the cohesiveness of the show. Only 4 days left - go see it.

by ADIDI on 6/25/14Brooks Atkinson Theatre - New YorkI am an old woman (80 years old) and, as the wife of a theatre critic, have seen hundreds of Broadway plays/musicals. I was totally carried away by AFTER MIDNIGHT and think it belongs in the category of musical greats. I don't understand why it's closing??
Rating: 5 out of 5by Anonymous on 6/25/14Brooks Atkinson Theatre - New York This show was absolutely amazing!!! The dancing was well choreographed. The light skinned deep red lipped curvy sister that did this voice trick song, sang like a bird and Patti voice demanded a standing ovation. My heart was over joyed watching this show. Great Job!!!

by Hyppy on 6/25/14Brooks Atkinson Theatre - New YorkIt was a joy from beginning to end. The performers were exceptional. It looked as if they were working to be the best for the audience and for each other. We added the play at the last minute after friends recommended it in glowing terms. We felt blessed to have had the opportunity to witness the talent. Our teen son was mesmerized, he loved it too.

by joaosax on 6/25/14Brooks Atkinson Theatre - New YorkThe show was just amazin, so much energy! The ending was just incredible, it got everyone on their feet! This was definetly one of the best broadway shows I have ever seen. I watched Motown on the same afternoon, the songs were good but the energy was just not the same. After Minight was the whole package!
