    Pleasantly Surprised

    by BR on 5/8/24Stifel Theatre - St. Louis

    I was very disappointed that I was not provided a program for the play. I like to read about the actors and see the song list etc. When I saw the stage, there wasn't much on it and I was thinking oh no. But once the show began and the further you got into the show, everything came together. They used projected images for the background and I am usually not a fan of that but the colors and images were fantastic. The acting and singing was superb. It ran the gamut from sad to funny. I learned things that I didn't know about Rick James. I would definitely give the play 5 stars but the fact that I didn't have a program is the reason it gets 4 stars.

    Rick James Unplugged

    by Stephone on 5/7/24The Orpheum Theatre Memphis - Memphis

    Man this show was AWESOME!! The cast were GREAT! The one thing that I was impressed with Stokley playing Rick James. I didn’t think he could pull it off with Rick’s song. He did an OUTSTANDING job. Melissa Van Pelt was great playing Tina Marie. I have nothing but KUDOS for this show!! Looking forward to seeing New Jack City onstage!!
