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

If it's anything great as the last :40 I've linked then I'll totally love it! I love the three leads especially the Donna in the front left. That down note she sang in her part is everything!

Anything else I should know?

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

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!!

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

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.

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!

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
