Really disappointed with Chicargo. Felt no connection with the cast to the audience and if felt like they were going through the motions. This show was our only disappointment whilst in NYC.

Returning to NYC after thirty years, I was delighted to return to The Ambassador Theater to see Chicago on February 26. The theater was very much as I remembered. Truly an historic gem, comfortable, elegant, with a sense of closeness to the stage. The show itself was wonderfully entertaining, and the cast was beautiful, professional, and engaging. My only disappoint...

It was AMAZING! Best part of my trip. The actors were so in sync it nearly looked robotic.the singing was UNBELIEVABLE The acting was more spectacular then any movie/ show I have ever seen. I also saw everything so closely and we didn't even have good seats. This was one of the most magical moments of my life.
We saw Chicago in NYC as it has stopped showing in the London and what a bonus as Billy Ray Cirus was playing the lawyer!!Great voice, but a little stiff, but all in all well worth seeing. Queues for toilets were a pain and drinks expensive
Saw "Chicago" and liked the show except for some microphone volume issues. The theater itself is obviously old due to the small size and tiny accomodations. The bathroom can only hold up to 8 people at a time. The mezzanine had a steep incline and you couldn't even see the seats below. So cramped, the girl in front of us...

I'm not a big theatre goer but absolutely loved this theatre. Quaint and cosy and I can't see there'd be a bad seat in the house. We went to see Chicago which was fantastic and made all the better by being in this environment. People were complaining about the small toilets and queues but it was built in the 1920's...

There's people complaining about the size of the place, yes, it is small but it's a pretty little quaint theater, good acoustics and Chicago was an excellent show. It's not the nicest theater in the world but I really can't find anything to complain about.
For our first time in New York City, we decided we must see a Broadway show! We decided on "Chicago," which happened to be showing at the Ambassador Theatre.
When I think of Broadway, I think that everything will be the Best, the Biggest, the Nicest, etc. (It's certainly the most expensive...) I thought that a Broadway theatre would be...

We recently went to see Chicago and it was my first time at the theatre. We had a balcony seat overlooking the stage 3 rows back. At first I was hesitant to order tickets in the balcony but my friend assured me the seats were good. Well, she was correct. I could see all of the actors faces and sets...

Enjoyed the show, loved this theatre but my visit was marred as out of the seven broadway shows I saw this venue seemed to have the biggest issue with my non US driving licence as a deposit when getting a hard of hearing device, something I need so as not to feel excluded from the show. To be fair other...
