TripAdvisor Five Star Reviews
[MAMMA MIA!] “The cast was absolutely outstanding. A must see when you are in Vallarta!!!!!”
[LIONEL RICHIE/STEVIE WONDER, presented by Kevin-Anthony II] “He brings the love back to performances that has been deeply missed. His voice is like a lullaby that is being sung by the one you love the most or like a hug so good you don’t want to ever let go!”
[WHITNEY HOUSTON, starring Diana Villamonte] “Her voice transcends your spirit into a place that brings a tear to your eye and chills to your skin.”
ActPV’s Best of Broadway show, at one point, enjoyed a 2-minute continuous standing ovation which brought the entire cast (and many in the audience) to tears! It was truly a night of magic! Director Danny Mininni said that he had wanted “to create a show where audience members could sing along to the best songs from Broadway, and if they didn’t recognize the tunes, they’d get inspired to go home and learn them!”
Well, The Best of Broadway does just that… and more! The audience was not only singing along, they were screaming, clapping, whistling, stomping and crying!
A big thank you to Meechie2cute for the wonderful 5-star TripAdvisor review, which says it all: “I just saw this show for the first time and WOW!! Am I in Puerto Vallarta or am I in New York City? The cast was INCREDIBLE! It’s probably one of my new favorite shows EVER and I don’t really care for Broadway!… This show felt captivating and ALIVE! This show forces you to love Broadway even if you know none of the songs because the talent is just that damn good! There is a moment where the cast sings together while seated without music… and my GOD… the harmony was angel like. I didn’t know whether to scream or cry… so I just clapped until my hands turned red because they all deserved so much more than just my applause and smile.”
