I saw Come Fly Away (Broadway) on 05/30/10. Overall, I'd say it was a 4-star rating. I'd summarize it by saying “Phenomenal dancing paired with great lyrics”

I had a fantastic time and left the show feeling uplifted and amazed. I'd describe the show as mesmorizing, engaging, and lighthearted. The incredible dancing by the entire cast was a highlight of the show because everything flowed seamlessly from one song to another. If this were a movie, I'd rate it PG. I would recommend this show to friends and colleagues, anyone who appreciates music and dance but not to people who need dialogue to follow a storyline.

I saw this show because I love Twyla Tharp's choreography and heard great things about this. I would see it again. I sat in the left orchestra area of the theater. The view was obstructed a bit and the seats were comfy.

I sat on left orchestra 4 seats in about 13 rows from the stage and couldn't see the singer or anything happening on that side of the stage, which wasn't crucial to the show, but I would have liked to have known beforehand.
