It’s an intimate show but the thoughts of characters can be epic, which is reflected in the brilliant and refreshingly innovative choreography of Camille A. Brown, which is always drama driven. It’s extraordinary how understated yet meaningful movement is handled throughout the show. Our eyes lock effortlessly into its energetic yet unified lines.
The best Broadway musicals create an immersive experience. The singing, dancing, set design, costumes and story transport you to a specific time and place, away from the heaviness of the world outside the theater. “Hell’s Kitchen” does all of that, capturing the vibrant spirit of 1990s New York. Camille A. Brown’s choreography — a dynamic mix of hip-hop and lyrical movement — gives the show its pulse. But none of it works without a strong foundation: the music. Powered by Alicia Keys’ timeless songs and a charismatic, immensely talented young lead, “Hell’s Kitchen” is as soulful and authentic as the artist who brought it to the stage — and just as entertaining.
