I saw Million Dollar Quartet (Broadway) on 11/19/10. Overall, I'd say it was a 3-star rating. I'd summarize it by saying “The storyline is somewhat weak, but the music is great! ”

I had a good time and left the show feeling content and entertained. I'd describe the show as light, entertaining, and well-performed. The finale was a highlight of the show because music was fantastic. If this were a movie, I'd rate it PG-13. I would recommend this show to casual theatre goers but not to someone looking for a thought-provoking evening .

I saw this show because it was highly rated and I thought it could be another Jersey Boys. I wouldn't see it again. I sat in the center orchestra area of the theater. The view was suberb and the seats were adequate.

The music was great, but it was more of a concert than a anything else. Unlike Jersey Boys, the storyline was overly simple and not adequate to cover an entire evening. If you're looking for a light, entertaining evening, you will not be disappointed. The performers were extremely talented and likeable, especially the Jerry Lee Lewis
