TONS OF FUN

The superb story line, incredible music,exquisite costumes, and skillful dancing blended beautifully!! As a long time Cher fan this walk thru time was truly a delightful treat. Cher is so much more than just an extraordinary singer. The show does a first rate job of portraying the many talents and fascinating life of this brilliant all around performer. I will be seeing The Cher Show again!!

CHER

Must see! I saw last night. Loved it. Can’t wait to go again. Amazing cast. So much talent in one cast. The opening scene can be tweaked to explain the three Cher’s. Not sure about the opening scene song with sewing machine. The story, cast, costumes, dancing all outstanding. You could debate for hours and still couldn’t agree who had the best voice. All were amazing. The solo dancer in the big dance number will blow you away. This cast is Broadway bound. I had $100 seats... worth every penny. You will leave and wake up the next morning singing the songs and wanting more. My advice bring back in reruns the Cher tv show. I’d watch. Don’t miss this play. Throughly an enjoyable fun night. Loved

A VISUAL FEAST FOR THE EYS

I came to the show with no expectations. How would they ever be able to fit her entire 50 plus year career into just a few hours? But they did a really good job of including the highlights. We see her go from child to superstar before out eyes. The three ladies playing her did really great jobs. People need to remember that they are actresses not Cher impersonators. This is a representation of Cher, her power, strength and tenacity is what shows in this piece. The costumes were nothing short of flawless. So many iconic outfits were represented on stage. The audience applauded her most famous outfits. The sets and lighting were well done. A great use of stage space. The rest of the ensemble was great, Sonny was really good and the actor portraying Gregg Allman did a great job as well. As for dancers and rest of the cast. they were all on point and should be commended. I can't say anything bad about about the show. I loved it and plan on seeing it again. .

I LAUGHED AND I CRIED

Not only was the show hysterical as it poked fun at the iconic diva, but it gave real insight into the trials and tribulations during her rise to fame. At times I actually cried. I've always been a fan, but my 21 year old daughter who saw the show with me, now has a new found love for Cher, and we were both left the theater craving more. I've had the pleasure of seeing Cher live in Chicago before, and believe me, this is the next best thing !

BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE - GET YOUR TICKETS NOW!

A must see before it leaves for Broadway! Thanks to Cher for sharing her amazing journey! James, I am sorry to say, I think your comment LACKS SUBSTANCE and it is not kind. You may have to wait for the next Tony Awards to see that it will be the Musical of the Year!

CHER WORK IN PROGRESS

Saw the show tonight. The 3 actressss were amazing. Jarrod Spector, who plays “Sonny” is Sonny! Just an uncanny performance. Stepanie J. Block was sensational! Such a heartfelt performance. Both Michela Diamond and Teal Wicks as the younger Cher’s were excellent. The cast as a whole are all extremely talented and enjoyable to watch. The show is a bit long and lags in some spots but can easily be fixed. I would like to see more up tempo Cher music. All in all this show is a must see. My group all came out of the theater with big smiles!

WONDERFUL ACTING/MUSIC/COSTUMES/NEEDS A TWEAK OR TWO

I really enjoyed this show and can recommend it - with one reservation - I think the story arc needs some tweaking. The good stuff - I LOVED the treatment of the 3 aspects of Cher, all the staging, the costumes, and the music - though acoustics of the Oriental are not great in the upper decks . But I REALLY dislike the last scene/end of story arc. The solo is breathtakingly beautiful and powerful. But it says she's still the same lost little girl from scene 1 and hasn't grown at all and is still searching for a man. Really? It's a total disconnect to survivor Cher/public eye diva Cher. It also makes Take me Home seem disjointed - a pandering add-on to prevent people from leaving the theater in a down mood. Give serious consideration to the comments made by Warren from DC, and you'll have a decades-long run on Broadway.
