Nicholas Sparks' novel leaps off the page and onto the stage in emotional new musical

“With its stunning performances, beautiful songs, and supreme stage directing, the musical succeeds in delivering a fresh spin on its original material while also making sure that Noah and Allie’s story is never truly forgotten.”

- Emlyn Travis, Entertainment Weekly

“As the elderly versions of Allie and Noah, Plunkett and Harewood also tug at our heart strings….and Katie Spelman’s dreamy choreography, which presents a wonderfully fluid vision of time.”

- Zachary Stewart, TheatreMania

The show, which opened Thursday night at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre after a hit run at Chicago Shakespeare Theatre…also delivers unexpectedly sophisticated theatricality with the requisite supercharging of the tear ducts, notwithstanding an archly familiar narrative.”
