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.

So much more than I expected
"I didn’t go in with many expectations but this show was so much more than I ever imagined. They made such amazing use of the stage and did things I didn’t know could be done on an indoor Broadway stage. The choreography and musical talent were out of this world. I would absolutely pay to see this show again and would recommend it to anyone visiting New York. "

Thoroughly enjoyed this show and the theater
"I loved the songs in this performance. Each performer's voice was perfectly suited for the songs. The gritty gravel on the stage and the rain scene added to the realism of the set. The costuming and each character's "look" seemed authentic to 1967. I am really glad to add this playbook to my collection."

The Outsiders was a fantastic show!
"I flew 3000 miles to see this show after listening to the album for almost a year. It was everything I hoped for and much more. The creative directing, the amazing singing and acting, the energetic and exciting choreography, the dramatic lighting, the poignant, tragic, yet heartfelt and profound story. I could find absolutely nothing to complain about. I was excited to be able to see most of the original cast I had been listening to for so long. Even when there were technical difficulties and Dally had to sing "Little Brother" without a mic and they stopped the show to fix the problem -- the actors came back after the break and picked up like nothing was wrong! It was amazing. Loved, loved, LOVED, this show and if I was able, I would watch it over and over. I hope it tours to Seattle so I can see it again!"

The Outsiders on Broadway
"I love it when a piece of art lingers in your mind for days, making you reflect on its themes long after the curtain falls. The Outsiders did exactly that. The set design was both clever and immersive, seamlessly transforming the stage into various settings with creative ingenuity. The costumes perfectly captured the era, and the choreography was thrilling—dynamic and raw, adding to the emotional intensity of the story. But the heart of the production was in the performances. Every voice, and every moment of acting was deeply felt, bringing an incredible depth to the characters and making for an unforgettable theatrical experience."

Exquisite show - Brilliant theater
"Remarkable rendition of the classic YA novel. This is a gripping play for adults, too, but the 12 to 20 year old audience will see real life problems they personally face up there on that stage. Particularly perfect for readers who are familiar with the beloved novel by S.E. Hinton. "

Great show!
"We were in town with our teenage son, who is not a theatre kid, but who does like to perform school plays. This was perfect for him, as there is a mostly male cast with high energy. The fight scenes were incredibly well choreographed. We all loved it!"

Hot Guys in an Awesome Show

Amazing Theater Experience
"I thought everyone was right on with their singing and dancing. The special effects in the fight scene was spectacular. I couldn’t have been more pleased with the show. I left wanting to see it again. After the performance many of the Broadway actors were there to sign playbills and thank people for coming. I just love everything about the Broadway community and especially this cast of Outsiders!"
