"Of course, the puppets, staging, and costuming were fantastic. But the sound was so loud my granddaughter and I both had headaches. I had to plug my ears. Therefore, the tender moments were still overbearing. Too much money for the experience. "

"I loved the singing, The dance routine was the same movements over and over and the dancer could be tighter for the number of times performing the routine The show got a bit boring midway so it didn’t capture my attention throughout The costumes needed to be more vibrant with gold showcasing the richness of the continent Too many of songs were in another language so it was difficult to really immerse yourself in the show Needed more drums in the songs, an African drum has the ability to connect to the soul when done correctly "

"Beautiful production, great music overall, but I was disappointed that parts of it were lip synced. We all pay lots of money to get to and stay in NYC, time off from work/life etc for a Broadway show, for the Broadway experience... A lip synced show is unexpected, and again, disappointing. The silver lining for me personally is that I'll do my research next time, and be more circumspect about my next Broadway show. It's an expensive lesson, but a valuable one. "
