While following parts of the movie, these singers/dancers and musicians brought the music and dance to a much higher level bringing honor to the originators. Would love to have recording of show, especially the beautiful, romantic rendition of "Under the Boardwalk". You could hear a pin drop.......next you were moving to blues/rock song. While staying in character to mimic Dan and John, they performed flawlessly. Girls' vocals beautiful. All together a thoroughly entertaining, if exhausting, experience. Would see it again. Would buy a video of this particular cast.

I enjoyed the blues brothers growing up. The tribute show was excellent. Jake adn Elwood were fantastic. Background singers "Bluettes" were fantastic. The band was good, would have liked to see a few more horns, but they were great.

The cast was all very talented. They did a lot of interaction with the crowd... standing up, dancing, singing along. The music and singing was all good. A fairly long show, at a nice pace. Lot's of fun.

Great show - the brothers, the band and back-up singers were great musicians. We really could have enjoyed it all the more if they had left the cursing out and especially taking the Lord's name in vain. Don't need to be offensive to be entertaining.

Great theater,. nice people.
It takes the first half of the show to get used to the fact that these guys aren't Belushi and Ackroyd, but they are pretty good performers. I really warmed up to the whole crew after the intermission. Their rendition of Under the Boardwalk was a thing of beauty. The Bluettes were high energy, and beautifully glistening by the end of the performance. Don't expect to be amazed, but expect to be pleasantly entertained for a couple of hours.

I thought this performance was great in terms of the music. However, I didn't realize it was just a concert only and I was disappointed that the performance ONLY included singing of famous songs with no plot or storyline feature for a broadway type show. If you go, realize that this is just a concert.

We were a little disappointed that it didn't follow the movie more, but, other than that it was really a fun evening!! The performers were excellent & the music was great!! Jake & Elwood did a fantastic job along with the rest of the crew!! They got everyone out of their seats! We definitely would recommend!!

Good music, talented cast, more like a concert from the Way-back machine than a broadway show. Audience participation good. Everyone from Cab Calaway to Elvis spoofed or given tribute! Truly a fun evening!

My husband originally wanted to see this production, and I was really not interested. It was so good! The performers had to be completely worn out at the end. So glad we attended!

Very disappointed in the quality of the music and the off color references. Weak performances by the backup singers on all but one song . The band was very good and the leads were good on some songs. The whole experience might have been better if the man behind me had not felt compelled to sing every song along with the cast.
This was one of the worst events I have attended at the Orpheum.

The show was just okay. It had great nostalgia but really, the show did seem to be cruise ship quality. Would have been happy paying half the price but for the quality of the show, it was certainly overpriced.
Overall - fun night out but don't expect a "wow" performance.

Overall, a great show. The band is great, the Bluettes are gorgeous, high energy, and great singers, and the Brothers . . . well, they are just all around good entertainers! If you want to spend a couple of hours giggling, clapping, and dancing in the aisles, this show is worth every penny. I saw people of all ages - from 7 to 80+, having a great time at this show.
