"Saw it 4 times this year, including the final performance on Dec. 15 which, in my opinion, was the best of the entire season. Wow! Actors and audience were showing their emotions in such a spectacular way. Actors emptied their tanks as there was no tomorrow. They just gave it all in this performance and made it a very special one to remember forever. They got emotional at the end and the audience acknowledged with the loudest and longest applause possible. They all deserved it, such amazing actors. Special recognition to younger Noah and Allie, (Benji and Anna) who were both outstanding in their performances and were the heart of the story. So talented. Wish them the best in their young careers. Hope to see them soon in other Broadway venues. Congrats to all involved in the production as The Notebook was definitely the best play on Broadway in 2024. Thank you all! "

"The cast was great! We hear the words live, laugh, and love all the time. Unfortunately sadness is also part of it - that's living life. This was a great show full of life! I recommend it to anyone. My daughter is 16 and she loved it as well as I did at 50! "

"Great performances all around. If you haven’t seen the movie or read the book, it might be hard to follow but the cast was outstanding. It was very entertaining and a good mix of drama and comedy. I highly recommend it and I don’t go to a lot of broadway shows."

"Notebook was absolutely soul touching. The performers were amazing and captured each character perfectly. Notebook is one of my favorite books/movie and I was skeptical going in about it measuring up but let me tell you, there was not a moment throughout the entire thing that I did not feel as if I were watching real life in person. The performers captured each character perfectly as well as my attention and emotions, I cried as if I was watching for the first time. This was my first time in New York and it was on my list to see a Broadway show and I was excited to see my favorite movie being shown and it was by far worth the trip just to come see it. Amazing job, my recommendation for future shows is to have tissue available because the emotions coming off that stage are incredibly strong and it doesn't matter who you are your heart strings are getting tugged real hard."
