MIX UP REVIEWS:
Meggan (Age 13) - ★★★★
"Commitments is a lively and entertaining adaptation of the 1991 movie and 1987 novel by Roddy Doyle. It tells the story of a group of Irish musicians in the eighties who form a band with the intent to play new and modern music, which gives them the idea to play soul. The cast is made up of incredible actors and actresses who manage to engage the audience and put on a phenomenal show. The 2 hour and 20-minute-long show was made up mostly of singing and performing. Every one of the actors had fantastic voices and kept up the fast and fun pace throughout the entirety of the show."
