A WALK ON THE MOON

I loved this lively and fun play. The sets were clever and wonderful. The dialogue throughout was well-paced witty. The actors wee terrific, especially the mother and her teenage daughter, who was really a teen! I laughed a lot and was thoroughly entertained.

A WALK ON THE MOON MUSICAL

BRAVO to the team behind this terrific musical. I was transfixed by the music and the production value on the stage. Young Alison reminded my of my sister and the inventive music and lyrics were so refreshing. THIS IS WHAT NEW AMERICAN MUSICAL THEATRE IS! This took risks and always didn't succeed but I was told this is its first incarnation and it sure was powerful and got inside my head. The acting was brilliant across the board. Mom and Dad Pearl and Marty sang beautifully and Pearls lusting for the BlouseMan exemplified the longing 1969 presented. Her daughter sang with such conviction and her coming of age as a parallel to the givings of '69 were spot on. The director moved the show so beautifully from scene to scene and continually surprised me doing so much with the same set pieces. Her pacing and the actors coming off and on were so graceful. The choreography and the set were as if I was in NYC and I'm definitely coming back and grabbing my MahJong ladies. A STANDING OVATION. MM

BEAUTIFUL PRODUCTION WITH OUTSTANDING CAST

Loved the musical! Talented cast led by Katie Brayben and Jonah Platt. Beautiful sets, funny, charming, and extremely entertaining. Although it takes place in 1969, we can all relate to a rapidly changing world and our place in it. In this new musical, Director Sheryl Kaller put together one terrific cast and creative team. I hope it is headed to Broadway!

A WALK ON THE MOON MUSICAL

I happened to watch this movie again just last night on dvd ( bought it a few years ago I loved it so much). I was googling something about the cast of the film when I saw the A.C. T. info that it just opened in S.F. as a musical. So excited, I booked a ticket right away for the 2 p.m. show today! Let me just say I was completely delighted with the production! The cast is an amazingly talented group of actors who really made their characters seem authentic. The original songs were fantastic. The whole production really captured the feel of that era and what the characters were going through, particularly Pearl and her daughter, Allison. Don't miss this gem as it's only here in S.F. for a short while. It's a real treat!

A WALK ON THE MOON - A MUSICAL

Fun show and talented cast. It felt like a NY / London production from start to finish. I was moved by the music , singing, and the simplicity/ complexity of the story line. The main character, who's longing for more, finds herself swept away by the "blouse man" and for a brief moment forgets all else. Very entertaining evening - I highly recommend it to anyone who would like a light, entertaining and funny performance.

MUST SEE!

This show's excellence is carried by the amazing songs, story, cast, and direction. i found myself engaged throughout the entire show, along with the audience. I would recommend catching it at the ACT Theatre before July 1st...otherwise you'll have to wait until it hits Broadway.

FUN SHOW! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

A wonderful romp back to 1969. Great music, well cast, nice comedic/poignant story. Terrific surprise to see a Broadway bound show at ACT in SF. You gotta see it.
