I HAD A MOTHER & DAUGHTER DAY OUT FOR THE 8PM SATURDAY SHOW. SINCE YOU GUY'S ARE COMING BACK MOTHER'S DAY, I WILL BE IN THE HOUSE. YOUR CAST WAS OUTSTANDING AND THE PLAY IT'S SELF WAS JUST LIKE THE MOVIE WITH A FEW ADDITIONS IT WAS GREAT PLAY. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK JE'CARYOUS JOHNSON. LOOK ME UP, I WOULD LIKE TO BE IN ONE OF YOUR PLAYS ONE DAY. STEPHANIE FLOWERS LANHAM, MD
The play was great. The acting was on point and the play kept true to the important elements of the movie. Especially loved Da'Brat...!
Our children’s high school put more effort into the set back drops and had more sophisticated scene transitions. Very disappointed.
If you get a chance please go see the play. It was like you were watching the movie. Everyone did a phenomenal job. I definitely would see it again.
Low budget adaptation of the original classic. And the audience made the experience even worse (talking during the play, coming in late & impeding the view of the stage, drunkenness, etc.). I will think twice about purchasing tickets for productions by this playwright.
The show was great! They all did amazing jobs. I was really impressed!!
I had doubts this play could grab the same emotional impact as the movie and I was absolutely proven wrong. The cast was beyond amazing and did an outstanding job!!! Da Brat gave me life with her dancing and facial expressions. The audience was so involved they were saying the lines with the actresses, clapping and even standing up to show just how much the actresses had us enjoying the show. I can't give the exciting parts away but trust me, if you see it you will understand. I have told everyone I know that they have to go experience this play. This play was hands down the best play I have ever seen. Great job Je'Caryous Johnson and all of the cast!!!
All the characters did there thing, but Da Brat killed it
Very good show identical to the movie slight changes but worth seeing!
Je'Caryous Johnson Presents "Set It Off" Did an amazing job with the casting of this stage play and the storyline represented all what the movie was and leaves you wanting more of the play and movie!!
I wasn’t expecting this play to be this good!! I was wondering how they were going to do all of the shooting scenes from the movie.
This has to be the best stage show I have seen in along time!!!!! I would recommend anyone to go see it as it adds a new experience and well cultured lifestyle......
The show was amazing ! Great seats! Great theater!
The play definitely exceeded my expectations. Set It Off is one of my favorite movies of all time, literally. So to see Mr. Johnson and cast reenact this play was phenomenal. I have to be honest and say that I was very skeptical about the play, but they overly exceeded my expectations. Not that Mr. Johnson didn’t already have my business and support from his “Things your Man won’t do 1 & 2” but he’s most definitely earned it. Keep blessing the world.
The 4 leads did amazing. The ending kinda messed it up for me
It was very good, the characters did an amazing job recreating the movie to a play.
I am pleased with Je'Caryous Johnson's adaptation of Set It Off. The selection of characters were on point and their stage presence was awesome.
The play was great even though I missed a short portion due to a loud and rude female that talk and interrupted the play since it started. Warner theater waited too long to escort her out!!
It was dry poor acting, the only person who to over playing their character was Latoya Luckett (Frankie). Stage appearance could have been better.
This was a great representation of a great movie and I love every minute of the play
