It was impressive in how they layer humor on a rather serious topic of religion.
The musical was wonderful. The actors/singers were excellent, the costumes and staging stupendous. A great Broadway show! However, the seats were exceptionally cramped for each of the four of us, and that is outrageous at those ticket prices.
What a great show! Made me laugh so many times, music, dancing, acting, and the overall cast of this show is really a must see :)
A funny play, but I would have enjoyed it more if I heard more of the dialog. Speakers up top were not turned on. I couldn't understand 75% of the dialog.
After all the hype I expected this show to be amazing and I was willing to pay a premium for seats. It did not deliver! I did enjoy the show, but it was not hysterical or wonderful. It was good and only good. I would not recommend it based on the price per seat.
If you can't be ofended by this you can't be offended. If you can't laugh at this you can't laugh. As long as you know what you are going to see, this is can't miss
If you are offended by ANYTHING - skip this play. If not, have a blast.
this show is fun, entertaining & hilarious, highly recommend!
Not sure why this was rated as highly as it was. We were disappointed and left at intermission. The theatre was hat and the seat were not good. All in all not money well spent.
Growing up as a member of the LDS church and now being inactive made me really appreciate how much I could relate to a lot of the situations in the musical. I was dying laughing the entire time. I would see this show 100 more times and probably never get sick of it.
I loved it very funny. I knew ahead of time it had humor around Jesus and God so was prepared. I am a Christian and Jesus is my best friend so didn't take it seriously. The message of hope and love was awesome.
I was not overly impressed with the play. Maybe I am too old for the vulgarities of the theater and the disrespect given to other religions. It just doesn't sit well with me for just laughs. I have seen better plays and enjoyed them more. For instance, I saw "Something Rotten" and truly enjoyed the music and the dancing.
good production values , but nearly as funny as advertised. Overall not worth the price of the tickets
well worth the wait - it really was great enjoyed every minute of it.
Non-stop laughter!! One of the best shows I have seen!!
If you offended by bad language, poking fun at religion, sexual connotations or racism this might possibly not be your best night out, but you should just not miss this hilarious night out! I could go back today and do it all again and again!
One of the most enjoyable Broadway shows I've had the pleasure to attend. Not to be missed!
The best show I have seen in years. Very appropriate to those coming from Africa
Been waiting or years to be able to get tickets to the show. We had obstructed view seats, sat one row away from each other, but had still had a blast. It was funny, bawdy with singing dancing and great music the entire. Well written and choreographed, no nudity-but still not the prudish.
It must be the most overpriced show on Broadway. It had some clever lines. It was very difficult to hear all the dialog which was distorted by the loudness.
