Best Musical Hands Down, Jul 13, 2010
|
reviewer: William Apunte from London, England
|
| Its very difficult to find a musical that you can truly relate to but this one touched every emotion posible as a latino immigrant. What a fantastic display of talent and charisma on show. Michael Balderrama and Alicia Taylor Tomasko have incredible chemistry with both demonstrating true heart and soul in their performance. Chris Jackson, Bianca Marroquin, Janet Dacal and Jon Rua simply sensational, the entire cast in this show are sincillating. I could not praise them enough for what was an amazing performance and a 5 out 5 show. A Must See For All Musical Lovers! |

Need Subtitles on an electronic screen!, Jun 13, 2008

reviewer: Anonymous from Anytown, AT 55555

| No doubt this 21st century "West Side Story" was very charming; but most of the audience did not comprende espanol de west indies. So accompanied by a friend from Michigan and Bombay, India; I kept on translating and filling in the gaps. Peope in the rows ahead had the same issue. I guess once someone goes home; who's going to tell a friend or neighbor that they did NOT enjoy a $100 show as well as they could have!
But, hey, I guess that's life in the ciudad grande! |

Excellent family entertainment, May 28, 2010
|
reviewer: Matt from Bonita, CA
|
| The actors are talented and he story line is entertaining. Perhaps it's changed since the 2008 review, but had no problem understaning the diaglog. Took our 14 and 15 year old daughters and they also loved it. The mix of salsa and rap was outstanding...this from a middle-aged white guy. Would highly recommend it!!! |

See What you can do about it, Sep 20, 2010

reviewer: Valentin from Queen\'s, New York USA all the way!
|
| Let me begin that the City of New York is raving about this show. As a fellow minority, I wish the prices of this show wasnt so expensive. I want to so much take my husband and family. My husband that has been serving in the military just returned from a tour in Iraq. I wanted to take him for which he has been wanting to attend this show. I know it would take him back to his Puerto Rican roots. So let us know if there are any military specials. Im there in a heart beat! |
