FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Bring It On: The Musical

Bring It On: Theater Review
8 / 10

Is the show destined for a place in the musical-theater pantheon? Unlikely. But it scores points by reinventing rather than replicating the source material, sampling from a tasty selection of pop-cultural favorites. And the sheer athleticism of the event numbers – with whirling cheerleaders catapulted into the air and then caught in gasp-inducing basket tosses – provides enough genuine thrills to compensate for the stop-start storytelling. When the girls are airborne, the show soars.

'Bring It On' review: Musical leaps high
8 / 10

This is a harmless entertainment, at least for the audience, cheerfully put together by such offbeat Tony winners as writer Jeff Whitty ('Avenue Q') composer-lyricist Lin-Manuel Miranda ('In the Heights') and composer Tom Kitt ('Next to Normal'). But for all the positive messages and appealing contributions from these new-generation pedigrees, the hero of the show must surely be director-choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler ('In the Heights'), who turned theater-trained singers and dancers into confident acrobats and real-life competitive cheerleaders into believable characters.
