Customer Reviews for Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812

A once in a lifetime experience!
I saw "The Great Comet" 5 times in NYC. It is unique for several reasons: a spectacular set that includes the audience in a 360 degree circumference. Costumes are spot-on, talent was immeasurable! Original music . Audience participation. I highly recommend the show. Don't know who your cast will be. Maybe, just maybe, you'll have some of the same performers I saw. They were incredible! P.S. In the NYC theatre, there were NO bad seats. Great visibility! (probably not a show for children, though)
Pure joy!
If I could give this 100 stars, I would. I was lucky to see it in NYC with original cast, Josh Groban, Lucas Steele among others. I sat at a table right within the show. It was a magical setting and was euphoric throughout the whole performance. The musicians and singers were over-the-top talented. I hope they can re-assemble the original cast for SF in the same kind of environment. I encourage you all to get tickets and go!
You won't be disappointed
I've seen this show twice in NYC, paying for the on stage seats, the second time. I brought my daughter, who works in theater, at the college level. The show is so energetic and fun. She loved it, and uses it as an example of unique staging, to her students. Wish I could've seen it again!
Truly amazing and unforgettable!
The music of Great Comet is the most layered and intricate score I've ever heard. The interaction with the actors makes this show such a personal experience. Every seat offers a unique and enthralling perspective. This show is addicting, don't miss it!
The best piece of art I've ever witnessed
I visited The Great Comet multiple times on Broadway and I'm absolutely planning to see it again on tour. I love a lot of musicals, from Les Miserables to Hamilton to Sweeney Todd, but this one tugged my heartstrings like no show has ever done. The immersiveness is amazing and you'll truly feel part of the story without any feelings of discomfort. No view is a bad view. Don't worry about the fame of the lead actors, they will be talented and they will amaze you. This show didn't deserve to close this early. I appreciate both Hamilton and The Great Comet a lot, but to illustrate, this show felt better than Hamilton in all aspects. The music is truly something else and the whole thing is just something you have to experience. Please, dear people, go watch this life changing show written by the magical Dave Malloy. And spread the word.
AWESOME
The most awesome, spectacular experience I have ever had. Saw it on Broadway on my birthday last April and will never, ever forget the experience. Had seats on stage and would highly recommend it for all members of the family.
