This is not a great musical. It won’t ever be compared to GYPSY, WEST SIDE STORY or even, RAGTIME but for Neil Diamond fanatics, or for those who love his music, it will more than be a pleasing experience. The music is fine, the dancing is dynamic and the concert-level staging is enveloping. It’s worth a sit-through.

In spite of all the pitfalls (more than usual for an opening night) this show is well worth seeing. Whether you are a Diamond fan or not you will find an entertaining story coupled with extremely well produced musical numbers. So Good...So Good...So Good!

Yes, another Jukebox musical, this time one based on Neil Diamond’s life (loosely) and the music (front and center).
The Neil Diamond Musical: A Beautiful Noise at Playhouse Square’s Connor Palace features over two dozen fully staged songs by Diamond, the Grammy award-winning Rock and Roll Hall of Fame star who has sold at least 120 million albums and appeared in concerts all over the world.
Probably not too surprisingly, his personal story seems a bit sadder, but that always seems to be the case — maybe it’s easier to see him as a man in love with performing.

If anyone was born to play Neil Diamond, it’s Nick Fradiani.
