The show is terrific, vibrant, alive and kicking. The set design is amazing, lighting and sound are all top notch. But it's GREEN DAY's Music and the talented cast's endless energey that brings this show to another level. I cannot say enough about Tony Vincent, Stark Sands and the rest of the amazingly talented cast. But it is John Gallagher Jr who turns in a Star making performance. This man is an endless bundle of talent. He is truly awesome and has a long, long career ahead of him. He was great in SPRING AWAKENING and won the TONY for his terrific performance. But I feel, this time around, he was truly deserving of a TONY nomination. I have seen the show 4 times now, because he draws me back. All I can say is , Go See it! It will ROCK you!!

I loved It so much! it was an amazing show! i knew what it was going to involve because i used my resources and looked up what it was going to contain. Its a rock band ... expect that stuff. Amazing performance and story line, Just amazing :)

Hard to believe I have seen American Idiot on Broadway with Billie Joe Armstrong -- four times now -- as I am from Boston! I have taken my family, husband, sons and last weekend, January 30 -- right before the "monster snow storm" -- I ventured again to New York City with five friends just to see the show. It is not too often you get to see a world class rock star perform with top Broadway performers up close and personal. And, that is what you get when you go to the St. James Theatre to see the show. It is outstanding. Everyone in the show pours their heart and soul into their performances -- song arrangements, harmonizing etc., band, choreography, modern set design -- all outstanding. I only hope this review can be conveyed to every individual in the cast. THANK YOU for a job well done, a great experience. I hope to see it again sometime soon -- although many trips from Boston to NYC are starting to add up! Well worth it though! Billie Joe Armstrong keep up the genius work.

I bought the Broadway cast album the day it was released, and I hate to say was a little disappointed when I first listened to it, but actually seeing it performed made all the difference. This show is that amazing. And the fact that Billie Joe was now part of the cast made it even better. And because its only for a week, spur of moment is not a bad idea. I'm glad I held out on buying tickets so I could see AI with him as St.Jimmy. Even if it last minute, go see this show like, now.

"Debbie from Arkansas", how about you do a little bit of research before you buy tickets? The fact that the musical is based on Green Day's album should tell you a bit about the content. Maybe you should opt for Mary Poppins instead.

my mother had to beg me to see this with her and i was dreading it up to the opening song. this show was captivating and i wish i could see it once a week. the story is hard core and the actors are amazing and can sing like crazy. if you can afford it the 3rd or 4th row is the best seat in the house. any closer and you get showered with spit and sweat. but its worth every penny. GO GO GO!
