Excellent. The actors, dancers, and singers were incredible. It was a performance we’ll remember for a long time. We appreciated the depth of the script, set against a historical backdrop.

Hamilton was amazing!!! The tickets arrived the day before and I had no issues getting into the venue. Highly recommend. I would, however, spend more on centered tickets, the view posted required me to lean and reach my camera out over the railing, most of the stage was blocked (not just the right) if you didn't LEAN the whole time. These were grand circle box seats.

The whole production of Oh, Mary! was perfect from start to finish. That said, Mason Alexander Park was brilliant, flawless-- a master at their craft!

Simply incredible, whether you're a big fan or not. It's spectacular and well worth the price! Bear in mind that the actors' conversations are quite fast-paced, so at times it can be a little difficult to understand. But incredible nonetheless.
