It's fine. It's not great. But if the cast is talented and energized, it's a nice way to pass a couple of hours.

And it's even a musical, really, so I don't think it counts as a jukebox musical.

How much are tickets for the production you're referring to?

Pay $70 for a theme park ticket and enjoy the rides and other theme park shows.

Smokey Joes Cafe was the first B-way show I saw with my High School Choir. I thought it was OK. Some of the actors were great, but overall it was a forgetable musica. **1/2 out of ****.

It is incredible. I can't believe you people.

I ask in all honesty/What would life be?/Without a song and a dance, what are we?/So I say "Thank you for the music/For giving it to me."
