An American in Paris Reviews
- Christopher Wheeldon's choreography for 'An American in Paris' is so spectacular...it's one of the highest lights of a 2014-2015 season notable for more and better dancing than has been seen for years.
- David Finkle, Huffington Post
- This gorgeously danced — and just plain gorgeous — production pays loving tribute to the 1951 movie, to the marriage of music and movement, and to cherished notions about romance that have been a defining element of the American musical theater practically since its inception.
- Charles Isherwood, The New York Times
- This is the most thrilling dance-driven musical since Twyla Tharp's wordless 'Movin' Out' in 2002.
- Linda Winer, Newsday
