Posted: 12/8/08 at 5:42pmI had a friend in a reading of this over 2 years ago. I never got to see it, but she was very impressed by it at the time. We'll see.

So is this the start of a trend, based on the success of IN THE HEIGHTS? Musicals about NY's neighborhoods???
DUMBO - It's not about an elephant anymore!
IN THE HEIGHTS 2 - Brooklyn strikes back!
CHELSEA - More sordid rooms than London!
I think we've already worn out WASHINGTON SQUARE.

Can't find a previous thread, but I saw the tour in Chicago last night and was really blown away. I went in expecting to be bored out of my mind, but I loved every second of it. It moves at such a quick pace, great songs, staging, loved the sound design and the incidental music. The vocals are insane by the two parents. Totally recommend.

I think this may be closer to what you want:
https://forum.broadwayworld.com/thread/HELL-S-KITCHEN-Reviews/6
This thread appears to be about an off-Broadway show?

…kind of shocked that this was the thread you could find.
