I bought tickets to the final show on the final touring leg of SUMMER: The Donna Summer Musical.

Absolutely delicious!

Not memorable, glosses WAY over the anti-gay thing she did after being born again.

She is my 2nd favorite colored singer next to Dioone Ross !!!! I enjoyed her song about menopause "hot flash"!!!!!!!

I love that song too. Has so much meaning. I'm getting hot and wet right now.

R4 My dear are you using generic incontinence products as well ??

Absolutely not but I do use Aldi lady razors for my huge thick bush.

I had the best time at SUMMER!

I grew up as a big Donna Summer fan so it was amazing to hear the songs again sung by great Bway singers.

DEFINITELY go if you’re a Donn Summer fan at any level. So much fun!!

Huge fan, r7.

I didn’t realize the tour had been started up again!!

There was proof she was anti-gay. Double hearsay.

The middle of next month it starts back, r9.

I can't make it, I was baking a cake in the rain and its' taking so long to make it and I will never have that recipe again.

The Tony Awards.

Heaven Knows...great number!

I loved the choreography in SUMMER.

yum-oooooooooooo !

It's a great show. A jukebox musical depends heavily on the voices. Broadway had LaChanze as Diva Donna -- spectacular on "Friends Unknown" -- but Ariana DeBose as Disco Donna and her vocals were lackluster on all the hits. As long as as the performers can sing it will be enjoyable.

[Quote] but Ariana DeBose as Disco Donna and her vocals were lackluster

After listening to the cast recording a few times I think DeBose vocals match Donna's lower vocal range and style. It's not perfect but it's very close. I think she's very good on and album.

DeBose is an out lesbian.

I'd rather just listen to the real thing. Donna was interesting because she was pure talent but not remotely part of the decadent Studio 54 world she ruled -- so her book and life story was a bit "normal" aka dull for drama. But who cares when she was such a huge part of some/many of our lives. "I Feel Love" still gets me every time.

We all would but she's dead. It's just a show not starring her because she's dead.

When Christian Donna discovers Jesus and performs "Rebuke Ye Gays" is the best time to go pee.

The glitter is dropped then r22. It's FAB!

Because it's the last show on the last tour leg I bought merch through the shows shop online. I was afraid everything would be sold out when I got to my show date. I bought the magnet, window card, two different disco ball keyrings and the coffee mug. I wanted a shirt but didn't like what they were offering. I've very excited!

..........

Thanks for the merch link! Grabbed a "She Works Hard for the Money" tote that looks cool.

You betcha, r26!

Love that show! It brought me so much joy. The Bway cast was just perfect.

I might have to make a trip to catch the final leg of the tour,

OMFG! I received my merch today! I'm so excited!!!!!

i love this.

Does anyone have a bootleg of the Bway cast ?

Good review for the touring show. Can't wait to see it!

I saw it in LA and while I didn't find it very interesting--her life story as presented here is almost drama-free--I still had a great time. The songs, of course, make it.

Piece of shit. Laughable presentation of No More Tears. They kinda throw in sexual abuse at the end as an afterthought.

I loved this show—one of the best times I’ve had in a theatre. Not deep. Just nice to reminisce about a great singer
