Dallas Theater Review: ‘On Your Feet!’

Review by Monique Thompson

From their humble beginnings in Cuba, Emilio and Gloria Estefan came to America and broke through all barriers to become a crossover sensation at the very top of the pop music world. But just when they thought they had it all, they almost lost everything. In the face of adversity, Gloria and Emilio both found a way to end up on their feet.

ON YOUR FEET! – THE MUSICAL is the inspiring love story based on the life and music of superstars Emilio and Gloria Estefan. As soon as the curtain opens, be ready to dance and sing along because THE RHYTHM IS GONNA GET YOU – literally. The bright lights will take over the stage and you’ll feel as though you’ve been whisked off to Cuba, enjoying the sounds of the Cuban ensemble.

The production of ON YOUR FEET! is a captivating experience featuring some of the best dance numbers on stage. The highlight has to be the audience interaction as the cast dances down the aisles and even grab a couple audience members to join in! ON YOUR FEET is one of those feel good musicals that the entire family can enjoy and make you fall in love with both Gloria and Emilio all over again – or maybe even for the first time.
