Audiences everywhere, get On Your Feet for one of the best Broadway productions I have seen!
You don’t have to be familiar with Emilio and Gloria Estefan’s story to enjoy this captivating show. “On Your Feet! The Emilio & Gloria Estefan Broadway Musical” takes you through the struggles and triumphs on the couples journey to stardom. You will meet Gloria as a young girl and follow as she grows up, meets Emilio and they begin to form strong family ties and trust in one another as they go through the ups and downs of life.
As the show opens, you’ll be transported back in time to where it all began, in Cuba, where culture and tradition runs thick and you can’t help but be captivated by the sounds of young Gloria (Amaris Sanchez) and the World around her.
The energy of the show stays strong amongst all that share the stage and you can’t help but find yourself moving in your seat and wanting to get “On Your Feet” as you feel like celebrating with the cast as the story progresses.

All of he Cast put forth full effort and energy into this production and it pays off. With a band and backup dancers that compliment each other so well, you will always be entertained.
Perfectly placed in the Role of Gloria Estefan is Christie Prades, who captures her role so well. Her partner Mauricio Martinez who plays Emilio keeps humor throughout the show adding a little extra spark of his own. The entire cast are equally talented and entertaining as they sing and dance with full energy from start to finish.

The set pieces throughout the performance stay simple enough which I liked as it does not distract from what is happening before you but adds just enough culture into the background that you feel like you are no longer sitting in an auditorium but actually with the cast traveling with them.

This is a great show packed with lots of fun music and dancing. It is entertaining for all, even if you are not familiar with the Songs of Gloria and Emilio Estefan. You’ll feel like you have your very own front seat ticket to a Gloria Estefan concert! The cast and crew should be very proud of themselves and this production.
Suitable for all ages, treat the family to a night out filled with good music in this feel good production.
I encourage you to find your way into a seat and challenge you to stay there because in the words of Gloria Estefan herself, eventual “the rhythm is gonna get you”.
