This was the first time we have seen An American in Paris. We thought the story line, the dancing, the music, and singing were all excellent. The first act was a bit slow and I was somewhat uncertain if we would walk away liking the show. But the second act was absolutely fantastic from the first scene thru the end. There were plenty of worthy ovations for the second act. We would recommend the show and would go see it again in the future.

Loved it from the balcony at Kennedy Center. Adored it from the third row orch at Hippodrome. The dancing is enchanting. The set design wonderful. Kyle Robinson as the lead was amazing!!! His style, swagger and smile is completely engaging. Can t wait to see his next project. Love the emphasis on the male dancers equal to the female dancers. Amazing music. Great vocals. A must see. So entertaining.

This show was awesome! I think Gene Kelly & Leslie Caron would have given this touring cast a standing ovation!

As advertised, the book of the show was different from the movie. However, it was still an interesting story. The biggest thing was all the Gershwin music, which was the highlight. The dancers were excellent, and the lead actress was marvelous as a ballet dancer. There also was a lot of comic relief.

We saw the show on Broadway and were interested to see how good the touring company is in comparison. We were pleasantly surprised by the excellent performances of the tour group. The dancing hit the marks for grace, enticement, and athleticism, each where appropriate. The touring sets can't compete with the LED screens in NYC, but they did not disappoint. They were spectacular and set the moods from subtle to romantic to glorious.

This was a very good show. The cast was fantastic. I did enjoy the show, but I did not love it. I am not a dance person, and An American in Paris is very much a dance show. I am glad that I went though, some of the acts were wonderful - real Broadway.

This show was the most spectacular display of talent we ever had the experience to view. The dancing, singing, acting was unbelievable. We have gone to many musicals for many years. We enjoyed this show the most. The talent, especially the leading rolls, was just the best ever. Magee Maddox, the principal male dancer and singer has talent that far exceeds most dancers that we had the pleasure to watch. The female lead dancer and the lead disabled song writer was also fantastic . I highly recommend to everyone that has a chance to see this show, see it.

Classic Gershwin music with amazing dancing. Acting and plot were so so. The venue was fine although seats on the far side of the theater should be listed as obstructed because a significant part of the stage is cut out

I must say, it was a good production. The only thing I had a problem with, (which is why I only gave 4 stars) is when Jerry said the "G D" word Why in the world that was put in the play I have no idea. I think Gene Kelly would be rolling in his grave right now. I thought it was disrespectful to the movie and the audience. Yes, it is said a lot, but come on, we need to take a stand sometime. I like wholesome plays without all the foul language! Why on earth it has to be added to everything, I will never understand. With that being said, I did enjoy the rest of the show. Thank you.

if you like ballet and melancholy music you will like this. this show moved to slow for me due to the long ballet scenes. i like to tap my toes and have a tune caught in my head when i leave. this show did not do that for me. i thought the cast did a good job i liked the tap scene dedicated to new York city and the rockettes dance line.

The Ohio theatre always provides a good experience when watching any of it's Broadway shows for the season. American in Paris exceeds expectations in terms of choreography and the overall talent of the cast. However, if you are not a true fan of dance and ballet, this may not be the best show for you. The story is not the strongest and frankly the show is a bit long and drawn out. Additionally the songs are good but not enough to bring this show up from being what it is at it's core, a place to merely show off it's dancers.

I m a jazz musician and I absolutely love the work of George Gershwin, which was the main reason I decided to come and see this musical. But WOW! It was everything I imagined and MORE! The pit jazz orchestra was insaaaane and so very talented. It was so hard to focus on just one aspect of this performance because everyone was giving it their best from start to finish. Unforgettable!

My wife and I really enjoyed "An American in Paris" at the Ohio Theater. Of course, you can't go wrong with Gershwin music, and the choreography was wonderful. From beginning to end the show was top notch. This show has now become one of my favorites. I would be glad to see it again in the future.

"A New Musical" should have been "A New Ballet". Very choppy storyline, chaotic at times not knowing what was going on (especially beginning and characters). If it was to be interpreted in the dancing it mostly was lost for me. Not what I found entertaining.

Dress circle seats were excellent. Great show. The dancers in the show were excellent (especially the males and the female lead). Really fun. Parking still seems to be a problem, but MUCH better if ramp customers pay AHEAD of time.

I wasn't sure what to expect since the movie with Gene Kelley is such a classic. This show doesn't try to remake the movie but in many ways is staged like a movie with fluid scene changes and backdrops that change perspective plus much more. I was truly blown away with all the elements. As to the leads, they were all excellent and there was great chemistry between Jerry and Lise not to mention superb dancing. I can't speak to the original Broadway cast but this roadshow company is wonderful.

A delightful play with "s'Wonderful" Gershwin score and beautiful dancing. The sets were creative. The dancing was mesmerizing. The cast is so talented. The principal characters had beautiful, strong voices and were from major ballet companies. The play offered more than we expected.

The play.was great but distractions made it hard to watch. First, two sign language interpretors were distracting because of the gigantic spot light on 2 women. Another thing, It was freezing in the theater. There was a constant flow of cold air. And I can't forget the guy in front of me who was filming and flashing the entire time. Very distracting

We had seen "An American in Paris" in NYC in December 2015 and was excited to see the touring production. We were not disappointed at all! The entire production was as good as in New York. It is one of the most beautiful and romantic shows from sets, costumes, music, singing and of course, choreography. Kudos to the entire crew that brought "An American in Paris" to Milwaukee. I certainly hope the show returns soon - I'll be in the audience again.

The music was wonderful, who can fault George Gershwin. The dance superb. The plot. What plot? It was just a confused mess of unrelated elements. Why set Gershwin's music, he died in 1937, in post war Germany? Why have so many unrelated elements - Jewish persecution, a former soldier accidentally encountering a victim of the holocaust, a 3 way love story that logically can't be resolved and in the end everybody happy with the end. The show needs a new plot. Or in point of fact a cohesive plot.

Excellent music, ballet, and story done with humor and fantastic sets. Thoroughly enjoyed this show and highly recommend it if you love musicals or just enjoy great theater. I was able to clearly hear every word sung and spoken, which is sometimes a problem with certain shows or venues. I would see it again if it came back this way.

My wife bought us tickets to an American in Paris. Knowing it was for our anniversary I didn't state what I would rather see. I'm so glad she did though as this production went above my expectations in everything from the dance routines, scenery, comedy and demanding efforts of the cast. My only regret is that it was the last night, as I would've liked to have gone back with my teenagers to watch it again.

This was our first time at the Majestic, so I am not sure where the fault lies. From the front left of the Mezzanine, we could understand too little of what was said or sung. Theater acoustics, sound system, actors' enunciation, "accents" -- or all of these? The venue itself is, of course, amazing, and I would have given it four or five stars, but then it looks as though I am recommending this production. I cannot do so for general audiences. This production seems to place the story second to the dancing, of which there is too much, unless one is himself or herself an aficionado.

This production was dazzling: the sets, the music, the DANCING! We sat in Row O, right center, and our only complaint was not being able to hear much of the dialogue--good thing we were familiar with the storyline. Otherwise, it was thoroughly enjoyable.

The movie on which this show is based is my all-time favorite movie musical so I was very eager to see this stage adaptation. I was not expecting for the story to be changed, but think that the Broadway version did so to good effect. I especially liked the ballet sequence at the end which reflected the paintings of Mondrian; while it was quite a departure from the movie it was extremely creative and original. I loved the show and would see it again!
