So, I am not a fan of Green Day, which may have helped me fall in love with this show in an instant! The high energy performances left me breathless and wanting more. The amazingly talented performers channeled Angst, Zeitgeist, and--well, Green Day-- perfectly. I wish I could see the show again, bummer, though it does not play in my neck of the woods anymore (even though I did contemplate driving to Atlanta for a few seconds). I really really want to have a DVD of this show. I would watch it over and over again. GO SEE THIS SHOW!!! This is my favorite musical to date--and I have seen quite a few musicals. Oh, and I would watch Green Day live because of this show, as well. GO SEE THIS SHOW!!!

Spectacular musical, not suggested for kids though. Maybe only mature teenagers.

American Idiot is phenomenal. It will have you laughing and crying all night. It leaves the audience emotionally and physical exhausted. As Bilie Joe Armstrong said in Broadway Idiot, it is a cold reality of what happened in America after 9/11. The album is true, the story is captivating and relatable to anyone. The set takes you to so many different places and after seeing it four times, going on six, I am still finding new things. It draws you in & makes you think about your place from the first line. It's always fresh. It's a story of love, rage, hope, being lost, adventure, sadness, addiction, political awareness, patriotism, joy, and so much more. The live band makes it real, and the actors are the best of the best. The singing is spot on and will bring you to your knees. Anyone can find a character to connect with. You are missing the experience of a lifetime until you see American Idiot. Billie Joe Armstrong and Michael Mayer have created something purely awesome.

First,to all the people who complained about profanity,similated drug use,sex,etc...IT WAS BASED ON A PUNK ROCK RECORD!!! I saw the show on Broadway and am very excited that it is coming to Houston. My mother doesn't like loud music,so no,I wouldn't bring her,nor would I bring a child who is unfamiliar with Green Day. If you are letting your children listen to the band,then they are already familiar with the contents of the play. If the content shocked you,then maybe a little more research on your part would have done some good.

This was an amazing show. It is a true Rock Opera. It is helpful to know that the Jesus of Suberbia ( Johnnie) and St Jimmie are one in the same person ( sort of a Fight Club , Edward Norton/ Brad Pitt thing). The songs are powerful and the dancing is awe inspiring. This is a truly modern, hip, musical ... Rock Opera... Like any Opera, open to interpretation in many areas. Can't wait for the proposed movie. Even if you do not know Green Days music ( which is fabulous... BillieJoe Armstrong is a poet) You Will Be Moved ...

I have seen many Broadway Shows.....this is by far my favorite!! I was super excited to see it was coming to Philly! The first time I saw the show, the tickets were a gift, and I had to drag my hubby to NYC.....this time he is buying the tickets and can't wait to see it again! YES!
