    Fun Show!

    by diamondgirl64 on 3/27/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    We enjoyed this show so much. It was great to learn the story of Gloria and Emilio Estefan. The show was humorous too and the music was great. The Bar Mitzvah scene was the best!!

    Nothing short of outstanding

    by abbycakes765 on 3/27/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    The play was wonderful! i loved the way it appealed to a Hispanic crowd as well. The lights and the full band made you feel like you were at a concert not sitting in a theater. All of the actors were outstanding. I love the way they incorporated the crowd at the end. I would highly recommend this play and would go see it again if i had the chance!

    We were on our feet!

    by Badgergirl83 on 3/27/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    An absolutely outstanding production! The energy throughout the entire show was amazing. Outstanding dancing, acting, music and the vocals were perfection. Everyone and especially the lead performers are crazy good. The story was very engaging and we lost all sense of time. This was one of the best musicals we have seen lately. Certainly we loved Hamilton and Beautiful and others - but we actually liked this one better based on pace, talent, quality and the overall entertainment experience. Highly recommended! You will be sorry if you miss it!

    Bland, But Not Horrible

    by MrAirdale on 3/27/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    Went to go see "Get On Your Feet" on Saturday night, March 24, 2018. Let's just say it's not "Jersey Boys" or "Beautiful". I was bothered by numerous things. I think my biggest criticism is that just lacked overall creativity, from the script (full of cliches and uninspired dialogue), to the sets (which were among the least imaginative I've ever seen for a big show), to the costuming (Gloria's look barely evolves from the time she's a teen to the time she's a star). Thankfully, the exuberance of the songs and the performances made it ok.

    On Your Feet

    by maylouisa on 3/26/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    Amazing! I saw this 3 years ago and loved it. I brought my husband this time, and he said it was the best play he has ever seen. This play beat out Jersey Boys! Absolutely a beautiful love story, great songs, fabulous orchestra. Usually, I find 2 1/2 hours for a play is too long. The time flew by for me. I've been on the internet reading everything I could about Gloria Estafan. Go see it.....I promise you won't be disappointed.

    Great music and sets

    by boltsnnuts on 3/26/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    The sets were terrific and the music lively and uplifting. Sound system was great even up in the cheap seats. Definitely recommend to anyone who loves Gloria Estefan music.

    Get On Your Feet..Literally

    by LoverofMusic27 on 3/26/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    The boldly told personal story of Gloria/Amelio Estefan and the Miami Sound Machine was well told through music and simple staging. The actors/singers/dancers were outstanding. The show was truly mesmerizing; the cast and musicians fabulous. Time passed swiftly as you enjoyed the music as it wove their story. Abuela was an unexpected delight. Her talent and personality shown through the acting; her flair was magical! The younger Amerlio played by Kevin Tellez showcased his dance skills which were truly delightful! Within the show, as the concerts were performed, you became a member of the cast. Audience participation made the experience even more amazing! If you haven't seen this show...GO. This is one you don't want to miss!

    Good Story with Great Vocals

    by MarciaAndy on 3/26/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    The story was interesting even though we knew a lot of the details. The injection of humor into the dialog was great. There were more smiles and laughs than I expected. The vocals were excellent!

    STAY On Your Feet

    by VickiPe on 3/25/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    You just want to STAY on your feet dancing, singing, clapping for more! High energy show with great costumes and the BAND was amazing! We all ❤️ The story of Gloria & Emilio Estefan, but finding it especially poignant now. When Emilio's line comes something like this "Look at me, This IS the face of an American" burst of applause !

    Blew Me Away!

    by Hamilfan on 3/25/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    I am a huge Broadway In Chicago fan and organize groups of friends to shows which have included Hamilton. I receive lots of emails, which sometimes include codes for discounts on tickets. This is what happened with this show. I had to make a trip to Chicago and centered it around my discount tickets to the Thursday matinee and brought along my husband. We went there expecting some good music because we were familiar with Gloria Estefan’s body of work, but I must say we got far more than we bargained for. The show absolutely blew us away! We enjoyed the singing and story telling and the dancing was the icing on the cake. I felt like this was DWTS meets Broadway. During intermission all those around us could not stop raving about how good this show was. I especially enjoyed the young male performer. His singing and dancing were standouts. I know the show ends, shortly, and I’m already looking for discount tickets to come again and bring my granddaughter. I’ve already recommended this to all my friends and it’s a show I highly recommend for any from eight to eighty!
