As a more casual fan of Cher, I can't say I knew all the lyrics to her songs before attending the musical, or even much about her personal history (ex: while I knew much of her relationship with Bono, I had no idea she had a kid with Gregg Allman). But, at least from where I was sitting, it definitely seems like die-hard Cher fans made up most of the audience (and after seeing the show, I officially count myself as one of them).
From the first dazzling number until the show's heartfelt final moments, everyone around me was dancing in their seats, mouthing along with the words to every song, and even full-on sobbing at points (to be fair, The Cher Show has some seriously tear-jerking moments, and I may have had "something" in my eye a few times . . . ). That passion for Cher naturally leads to an incredibly fun atmosphere, and an unforgettable Broadway experience that celebrates an icon.
Tickets are now available for The Cher Show.
