Revolution Chicago at Stage 773

Chicago Reader - Somewhat Recommended

"...Comedic one-liners and impressive vocal renditions of Mickey's mixes by Anthony Hansen are high points of the play, yet the choreography by Brenda Good falls short of dance moves seen at house parties throughout Chicago during the genre's rise and even today. While there's no doubt that Oliver made great contributions to house music, this celebration disappoints when it comes to truly making audiences feel like they're back in the mid-80s where it all began."

Chicagoland Musical Theatre - Highly Recommended

"...The result of all of these faults is a disjointed, messy production. It is telling that at the performance upon which this review is based, the audience didn’t seem to realize that curtain call was happening until the full company bow. At its best, it is simply boring and at its worst it comes off as a shameless exercise in self-aggrandizement, given that the real Mickey Oliver is the show’s producer, director and writer."

Chicago Theater and Arts - Not Recommended

"...The show is poorly conceived and executed."
