It’s so special to have been here—it really leaves you speechless. The outdoor Memorial (open to the public) and the museum are very impressive. Once you’ve been inside the museum, you really get a sense of everything that happened that day. It’s definitely worth a visit.

The musical was incredible—the staging was excellent, and it kept us entertained the whole time. It’s like standing right in front of MJ.
I highly recommend it. On the downside, the theater seats were a problem—there were very tall people sitting in front of us, and even though we had good tickets, we couldn’t see the show very well.

This was an amazing Broadway experience. The staff was efficient with getting people into the theater and to their seats. Director, Debbie Allen walked through the theater speaking to and waving to the audience before taking her balcony seat. The cast was spectacular! They masterfully delivered Wilson's complex themes of post-slavery identification. Depicting that Freedom is more than physical liberation exploring the spiritual and psychological aspects as well as community and connections. I especially enjoyed the chemistry between Cedrick the Entertainer and Taraji P. Henson. Ruben Santiago-Hudson Is a MASTER who astonishingly getting better with each project. The children in the cast were fabulous actors who had the audience wrapped around their little fingers.

Headout is awesome! The interface works so user friendly, and I could save some bucks with the discounts as well. What else would I need. Also, I can now explore more based on suggestions from Headout. I love it.
