Why see On Your Feet?
The Inspirational Story of One of the Greatest Artists of All Time, Gloria Estefan
On Your Feet is both touching and inspiring as it follows Cuban-American songstress Gloria Estefan as she battles the highs and lows of making it in the music business. As lead singer of Miami Latin Boys, Estefan began to gain notoriety and success with the release of their hit single 'Conga' in 1985.
Gloria Estefan married her bandmate, Emilio Estefan in 1978 and has gone on to receive many accolades over the course of her career. She has won three Grammy Awards, received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and been awarded with an American Music Award for Lifetime Achievement. VH1 and Billboard honored the star by including her on their Top 100 Greatest Artists of All Time lists.

One of the best EVER!
I laughed. I cried. I danced. Poignant and thoroughly entertaining. The storyline, supplemented by perfectly applied lyrics and song, made this my second favorite show of all time - second only to Jersey Boys. I have been going to Broadway Shows since I was a kid, growing up in New York City, and, at 71 years old, have seen some phenomenal performances. So for me to rank this show as the second best ever - is saying something. This is a show that the entire family will enjoy - albeit on different levels. ... Read more

On Your Feet : Indeed !
A truly inspiring and compelling story!
Wit, romance and the MUSIC!
The Rhythm is gonna get you, more than once during this show.
The foundation of the show is the orchestra and musical director Jorge Casas who drives the infectious rhythm via vintage Fender P-Bass.
The percussion section was precise and relaxed at the same time. Timbales and conga basking in the Cuba Libre.
The horn section was smooth as glass and opened up the score during scene changes and segues.
The story moves along easily as told though infectious song and colorful choreography. Here is where we see truly gifted performers deliver non-stop movement and shimmering harmonies.
Christie Prades (Gloria) and Mauricio Martinez (Emilio) are instantly lovable leads with charisma to spare. Whether in harmony, counterpoint or solo, superb performances by both.
The supporting cast and dancers are joy to watch.
Don't miss this one.
