This show exceeded my HIGH EXPECTATION... The cast was exceptional. The male lead was believable, captivating and superior to the television interpretation .Felicia played by Ms Khadijah Rolle was a vocal powerhouse combined with thoughtful acting choices that left the audience thinking .. and wanting more. We can t stop talking about the show!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The show, the cast, the venue, the orchestra - all amazing. Would highly recommend any show by Slow Burn group. Don't miss a chance to see a production of Memphis anywhere - it is a great show.

There was an amazing energy to this performance that makes everyone want to jump up and dance along with the performers. If you have any appreciation for music at all then this is the show to see!!

Cabrillo Music Theatre does it again with style. A poignant, heartfelt, rocking look at life and music in the South in the 1950s. The program said only 3 of the actos were actors equity--don't believe it. The entire cast was strong, light on their feet, and musically talented. Great book about racial divides and prejudices in Memphis in the 1950s. If you only see one show the remainder of this year let this one be the one. Standing ovations are the norm in Southern California; this one was more than well deserved. Professional set, incredible choreography, well sung songs--you can't ask for anything more.

Memphis was fantastical! Loved the characters that were created for the musical. The main character Huey is based on Dewey Phillips, the first white DJ to ever play "black" music on a major radio station. (All the others were created.) The acting, singing, and dancing were excellent. The actor portraying Huey was very good, and the actress playing Felicia, even though very young and just out of college was like a veteran. Delray's actor and Huey's mom were so professional and they all could be on a national stage. The props were very very good and it felt really exciting to see and hear this excellent musical.

From beginning to end, high energy, catchy music, terrific singing and dancing, a very cohesive cast working together to produce a spectacular musical! The story draws you in, the songs have you tapping, the dancing is mesmerizing, and you remain on the edge of your seat throughout the show. Everyone is enthusiastic and energetic.

But, I really enjoyed this show and the cast was really into the presentation. Very energetic. The venue offers a dinner package that is a good value and was delicious.

Memphis is one of my favorite musicals. We saw it on Broadway 4 times and now once at the Santander. It was great again! I think the Santander needs to Advertise a little further away like Allentown and Bethlehem. That theater should have been sold out. The venue is great and the play was great. Bring more musicals to the Santander!!

What a musical!! The music from the 50's was great, the acting and dancing was exceptional. A very entertaining show with comedy and a good story. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the evening. The Vern Riffe Center was a very good venue to watch the performance.

Too bad Memphis was only in town one night! It was a great show for the city of Detroit, with equal parts entertainment and history. The actors were fabulous and their voices even more so. The choreography could have been a little tighter, but overall a great show.

We left at intermission....the music was forgettable, and the story line was non-existent. Very slow, and I wondered how this play had won Tony awards in the past.

Very disappointing. I thought the production was far below professional standards. Felicia Farrell (Zuri Washington) has a spectacular voice and I enjoyed her. The rest of the cast was mediocre or less. The dancing was choppy. The songs all sounded alike to me. I expected a lot more from this show.

The musical was totally engaging. Dance and singing were of good quality. Since the play was from an era I strongly relate to and remember, it was especially enjoyable to me and my wife. Thanks, Fox, for hosting an entertaining production!

The production was light on the music and heavy on the political statement. I was disappointed. We left at intermission.

Enjoyed the story which showed the transition between Black Music, Rhythm and Blues to todays rock and roll......and the racial boundries that began to fall when White America embraced the sound... The Dancers were excellent, the lead charectors were engaging....very pleasant performance.

We had expected popular 50's songs to be included - not. However, the specially written songs tied in well to the storyline making this a better story than most musicals I have seen. The music was good - just new to us. the acting was enjoyable and the characters worked for their money. Hugh disdained rules and was poorly educated but still was a success because he believed in the product and himself. Some decent humor along with a statement about bigotry that existed then and we have seen become prominent again. All in all - worth the money!

Memphis: The Musical was a delightful experience to have. Filled with fantastic music, comedy, dancing, and shocking truths. If you enjoy musicals then you have to put Memphis at the top of your list for events to attend. HUKADOO

I enjoyed the show! Huey Calhoun was awesome! His love for acting was apparent in all the scenes he was in...he made me believe his love for music and his love for his women (in the show). I would see it again!!!

The music was very good, the voices, band and dancers were all amazing!! I really enjoyed the storyline, but the lead character of Huey was a little hard to warm up to, as he was such a buffoon.

This show kept you entranced. The dancing, the music. The lead female actor. What a gorgeous voice. Loved the seriousness along with the comedy. Made the point of the hardships that were faced and yet added enough light comedy to push it along. Huey was wonderful, funny, sad. Just an awesome show all the way around. Don't miss this show.

The sound was too loud and distorted. Loud is ok if the sound is clear, not distorted. The Sound person should check with the audience to find out if they can understand the words. There is more to a musical than motion and LOUD NOISE! Thanks

Memphis was a great play! set in the 60's, about a white dj who promotes and falls in love with a beautiful black singer, great music and dancing, fast paced and deep. It was one of the best plays I have seen and I have seen many!!!
