★★★★★Charles BillingsAbsolutely wonderful! West Side Story. Saw this on Broadway a few years back. I think Bernstein would have raised an eyebrow. When Maria sings I feel pretty at the playhouse, it's actually believable. Great place. Nice, friendly people both patrons and staff. We had a great time.
★★★★★Miss RuthBroadway-caliber shows, kind, attentive staff and excellent accessibility services, Paper Mill Playhouse continues to impress me every time I'm there. If you are blind or have low vision, you will thoroughly enjoy their Audio-Described performances. They set the bar high there, and, to me, are an example of best practices when it comes to including People With Disabilities in their programming. Give them a try, and tell them Miss Ruth sent you😊
★★★★★Lyn Boyle1776 was great- talented cast and orchestra. Ate at the Carriage House before the show. Good food, a tad on the expensive side, friendly wait staff. Seating is comfortable, parking ok because we got there early. Very enjoyable experience.
★★★★★Carmen S CaroHave been attending all performances to the Paper Mill Playhouse in NJ. It had been a great experience. Yesterday April 28th, 2026, I saw the performance 1776. Even though we know what happened during 1776, I was taken aback by the entire production. Actors and their professionalism, the stage, the costumes was trully fabulous. These men's voices were out of this world. I especially loved Thomas Jefferson's and Jonh Adam's voice. Really sharp and flawless. 👏👏👏👏👏
★★★★★Katya AyWe never attended a show, but my kids take classes here and absolutely love it. The teachers are extremely professional, and the classes are very hands-on. Both of my kids enjoy every session.
