Exceptional!
This is one of the best shows I have ever seen.
Astonishing!
I attended tonight's performance on a whim as a friend had an extra ticket. I'm thrilled to have learned first hand what all the fuss is about. The most unique, powerful, touching, funny, exuberant musical I have ever seen (and I've seen a lot of theatre!) The male lead was electric and had the audience on our feet. Lillias White is a force of nature to behold! I was moved to tears by her God given voice. What a lucky chance that a friend had an extra ticket. I can now say, after the fact, that I wouldn't have missed it for the world!
Excellent!!!!
The entire show was amazing from beginning to end. The plot, dancing, singing, and atmosphere set for an enchanting evening. Michelle Williams fit the role perfectly. Her voice is so soulful and beautiful.
High Energy and historical
I saw the show in Houston opening night and was WOWED off of my feet. Excellent manner by which Fela's life was displayed and the singing and dancing was unbelievably outstandingly beautiful. It is obvious Beyonce studied the African dance which is why she dances so wonderfully. I recommend everyone to see. Most entertaining and enjoyable and a learning experience.
AMAZING SHOW
