Review: THE OUTSIDERS at Belk Theater
by Perry Tannenbaum - Feb 9, 2026

Musically and dramatically, THE OUTSIDERS plays like a top-notch chamber version of WEST SIDE STORY: less-heated animosities between the gangs, no symphonic aspirations to the music, and no hormones - none of these Greaser dudes has a girl! But when the music, the jagged choreography, and the special effects get cranked up, the fanaticism of the pre-sold audience is irresistibly contagious.

Review: THE OUTSIDERS at Dr. Phillips Center For The Performing Arts
by Albert Gutierrez - Dec 17, 2025

One of the most effective things the musical gains by moving from page to screen to stage is permission to reframe the story without betraying it. By leaning harder into the Curtis brothers as the emotional spine, the musical clarifies a distinction that’s always been present in the text but rarely foregrounded this explicitly: Darry, Soda, and Ponyboy are family by blood, bound by obligation and grief; while the Greasers are family by choice, bound by loyalty and survival.
Review: THE OUTSIDERS National Tour at Durham Performing Arts Center
by Jeffrey Kare - Dec 3, 2025

Based on S. E. Hinton’s 1967 novel of the same name as well as Francis Ford Coppola’s 1983 film adaptation. The Outsiders is set in Tulsa, Oklahoma in the 1960s. The story follows Ponyboy Curtis, his best friend Johnny Cade, and their Greaser family of ‘outsiders’ as they battle with their affluent rivals, the Socs. Together, the Greasers fight for survival and a quest for purpose in a world that doesn't accept them.
Review: THE OUTSIDERS at Bass Concert Hall
by Joni Lorraine - Oct 23, 2025

S.E. Hinton was just fifteen years old when she began her now-seminal novel The Outsiders. Inspired by her experiences growing up in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the book became a defining work of young adult literature and has been taught in middle schools across the country for decades.
Interview: Tyler Jordan Wesley of THE OUTSIDERS at Orpheum
by Analisa Swerczek - Sep 26, 2025

I’ve always been in love with musicals and movie musicals—whether it was Disney, Hairspray, or Dreamgirls. I remember sitting in front of the TV, memorizing every line word for word, and knowing from a young age that this was what I wanted to do. In middle school, I started taking drama and acting classes seriously. They were just electives at first, but I knew I had to be in drama. I did it all three years of middle school.
