About

The Simon & Garfunkel Story

Since its sell-out in London's West End, The Simon & Garfunkel Story is now the World's leading theatre show concerning Simon & Garfunkel featuring a full live band and state of the art video projection and lighting. The show includes all of their hits, including Mrs. Robinson, Cecilia, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Homeward Bound and many more.

With more than 100 million album sales since 1965, Simon & Garfunkel's perfect harmonies and songs that poignantly captured the times made them one of the most successful folk-rock duos of all time. Over the years, they won 10 Grammy Awards and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990. In 1977, their Bridge Over Troubled Water album was nominated at the 1977 Brit Awards for Best International Album. In 2003, Simon and Garfunkel were awarded a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award and the following year saw their The Sound of Silence awarded a Grammy Hall of Fame Award.

    A little disappointing

    by Kevin on 2/26/22CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    More like a Simon and Garfunkel cover band: I wouldn’t consider this to be a Broadway musical

    Documentary more than a play

    by Paul on 2/25/22CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    Songs were great, voices were great. But it was really not a play in my mind.

    It was awesome.

    by CatWoman on 2/25/22CIBC Theatre - Chicago

    The two musicians/singers and the band were incredible. I felt like I was at a concert of Simon & Garfunkel many years ago. Their harmony and voices were perfect. The big screen playing photos of days gone by brought back many memories. Loved it.

    If you close your eyes...

    by K. P. on 12/13/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    ...you would think the actual Simon & Garfunkel were in front of you...what an experience...they "nailed" the mannerisms and the voices...great anthology of the history of this wonderful twosome...I was ready to see it all over again...right after the show I just watched! Please bring them back...

    The Simon & Garfunkel Experience

    by Greg on 12/11/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    Price was great-seats were fantastic-sound was not overpowering-perfect. Performance was excellent, backup musicians were great. Ben Cooley had Art Garfunkel down to perfection-all moves & look, and a fantastic voice (should have entered The Voice!!) and Taylor Bloom was also perfect on vocals. Thoroughly enjoyed the performance. Will always remember this duo and show. The staff was excellent and very courteous and helpful.

    Thumbs up!

    by Kathi on 12/11/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    This was our first visit to Water Tower Playhouse. Excellent venue! Will definitely return. The Simon & Garfunkel Story was wonderful. What a walk down memory lane! The voices were spot on. Loved every minute of it!

    A stroll down memory lane

    by C. on 12/11/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    I grew up with this music as a huge part of my childhood. In the reunion concert in 2004, I was brought to tears standing in the same venue as the original artists listening to them perform all their music with guest appearance by the Everly Brothers. Again at this performance, their ability to recreate that prior experience was palpable. It is a performance worth seeing if that music speaks to your soul.

    The Music of Simon & Garfunkel

    by BJ on 12/11/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    Loved this show -- the closest one can get now to a live performance of S & G themselves -- plus some interesting history of their partnership and music. I've been to this show twice.. and would go again.

    All about the music

    by T. on 12/11/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    You learn enough about the history of S&G through video and pictorial slide shows matching history to their life’s and songs. The key for me was the music. Both actors had outstanding voices and sounded very close to the originals. Great job

    Great performance

    by SMD on 12/10/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    The venue is small and all the seats have great views of the stage. The artists who portrayed Simon and Garfunkel were amazing. They had beautiful voices. I really hope these two performers go far in their careers.

    Blast from the past

    by RJS on 12/10/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    Theater was small and good visibility from every seat. The performance flowed and covered a range of the songs over time. Everyone in the crowd was quietly singing along with the performance and smiling.
