Just Amazing!
"I was prepared for a original Broadway experience. I wasn't prepared for the overwhelming awe I experienced watching this show. I found myself crying just from the joy and depth of feelings this show was able to convey. The actors and the innovative technology and stage craft combined to make this some of the best theater I've ever seen. As an added Bonus, if you had told me that Darren Criss was an actual robot I would have believed you, what an absolute amazing performance down to the last subtle detail!"

Finally, a truly original musical!

Creative plot with phenomenal voices
"We loved the sweet story and phenomenal acting and singing! A small portion of the show is in front of the main stage so the balcony railing obstructed the view. We all highly recommend Maybe Happy Ending!!"

A must see
"This was an impulsive decision to go watch but it blew me away. Darren and Helen are absolutely amazing, their acting, their VOICES (especially Helen) was astoundingly clear and piercing. But Dez in particular he was a standout. I loved that this show was a smaller production, its’ intimacy added to its’ delicateness. It had no intermissions and so it felt like watching a movie come to life. In terms of plot it was predictable and I expected it to go the way it went but yet, its emotional pull was never dampened. Everyone couldn’t help but talking about how moving the show was after (not to mention the standing ovation)! Thank you to the team who made this come to life, it will stay with me forever "
