Bullets Over Broadway Reviews
- Director-choreographer Susan Stroman at the top of her game with a toothsome cast and a gag-filled book surrounded by repurposed jazz standards. Who knew Broadway could still be this much fun?
- David Cote, Time Out New York
- The book is funny, the staging inventive, the cast outstanding, the sets and costumes satisfyingly slick. It has the sweet scent of a box-office smash.
- Terry Teachout, The Wall Street Journal
- With Bullets Over Broadway, his first Broadway musical, Allen has created an old-fashioned, madcap lark of a show that seems precisely where it belongs.
- Linda Winer, Newsday
