Luke Evans is genuinely a bit of a revelation in this, and Amber Gray is menacing and bizarre in all the right ways, but I found almost everything else about it a little community theatre. And not really in a way I think they intended. (Oh, how I wish Harvey Guillen were replaced by a drag king.)"

It supposed to bebasic. in the interviews they have mentioned it. They wanted to createmessy and trashy elements of the show in coordination withwhat Studio 54 was. They are purposefully not trying to recreate the commerically-clean previous Broadway revival"

I’m capable of understanding the difference between intentionally messy and basic, and unintentional. That’s not my point. I was talking more about the quality of the performances and general lack of imagination in the staging. The sets and theater decoration were actually some of my favorite aspects. But I guess it was easier to school me than try to tease out what I meant.

Just saw this tonight and had a blast! Set, atmosphere, and vibes were all top notch. It would've been perfect for me if they had a couple cast changes (cough, cough, Harvey & Juliet, cough, cough). Stephanie surprised me with her vocals. Of course, Luke was the highlight. I forget that the songs are soooo catchy. Great audience, perfect amount of call backs, and overall fantastic  production.

Caught Rocky last night from the back row! Loved it and exactly what I wanted from my first night in NYC!

 

Loved the expensive cheapness and how it invaded the whole theatre! 

 

Luke was fab but Stephanie really was the stand out - SUCH physicality!

 

Those seats with that legroom was PUNISHING and I was very happy it was a short show. Found it very amusing everyone running and queuing in the interval - we do this with more style in the West End

 

Was anyone there last night ? RIGHT at the end of the Time Warp the whole cast stopped and this man walked to the front of stage from the auditorium and, like, clicking his fingers and this random woman walked off the stage and then the cast went STRAIGHT back into the song! It was so strange, does this normally happen? It was so quick and brief and almost worked in the song (but then I was a bit drunk and high)!

only a little bit of shouting out tonight, can’t say I really missed it. This was my 8th Rocky over 32 years

The seats in Studio 54 are downright roomy compared to those in the August Wilson and Helen Hayes theaters.
