About The Outsiders

The winner of the Tony Award® for Best Musical is The Outsiders. This classic coming-of-age story takes you to Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1967, where Ponyboy Curtis, his best friend Johnny Cade, and their family of Greaser “outsiders” dream about who they want to become in a world that will never accept them. The Outsiders features a “tuneful and soul-bearing” (New York Stage Review) original score, “high-octane choreography” (New York Magazine), and a “sensational young cast” (The Wall Street Journal) that brings the show to life.

It wasn't entertaining enough

"I liked the people doing the show, this has nothing to do with them, they are very talented. There was too many slow songs, kinda boring for my liking. When I think of broadway musical, I enjoy more dancing and upbeat music. This show was not that. Did not like the Venue - seats were not comfortable!!!"

"So much talking not a great 🎶 musical. But it was voted number one so don’t go by my choice."

Tries but no

"Great staging and solid performances can't overcome a weak, predictable story line and mediocre score. "

It was just ok!

"I wish I didn't know it won a Tony for Best Play. Maybe I expected it to be amazing and in all fairness, the actors were extremely talented but I couldn't feel a connect or a flow with the show. To me there was no stand out song or performance. I was disappointed but the Broadway experience is always wonderful. "

Ho Hum

"Songs all seemed the same and nothing that resonates after you leave the performance. I don't get how this won Tony's. We picked this as it was a day before Wednesday and other matinées were not available. Maybe the bar after you see Wicked and some other 'greats' is set too high. "
