Merchants of Bollywood Tickets

The show was beautiful!! The colours were brilliant and the music was incredible!

I was looking forward to this show since I heard it was coming to Toronto. I am Indian and grew up watching Bollywood with my family. Unfortunately this show fell short in so many ways. The script was horrendous and the acting reminded me of watching a school play....monotone and bad. I do enjoy musicals and realize that the script and acting is never amazing, however, Merchants of Bollywood took bad writing and acting to another level. The dancing, which was the point of the show was quite stunning. The audience was embarrassing. I felt like I should have been watching a Bollywood film at Albion Cinemas with the way that the fellow audience members were acting. There wasn't a silent moment in the theatre. People kept on getting up and moving seats, talking amongst themselves and eating loudly. Overall, not worth my money...although I did enjoy the dancing a lot, the entire experience fell far short of expectations.

Dance numbers with full cast on stage - sensational Dance numbers with small groups - mostly forgettable Dialogue - so-so No real involvement with the characters. Not enough 'meat' to hang around the blockbuster dance numbers.

This musical production is both energetic and insightful. It shares a glimpse into the incredible and passionate Bollywood culture. This amiable and buoyant show benefits from the talents of Vaibhavi Merchant (Choreographer), Bipin Tanna (Costume Designer) and a fantastic ensemble. Whether it's the music, the beautiful outfits or the moves, there is an allure that makes this show simultaneously funny and entertaining. Audiences will be tempted to learn a few Bollywood dance moves themselves...

The costumes were beautiful; so much colour and energy. The cast was incredibly talented. The show was mesmerizing from start to finish. You have to go!

not enough dancing and the disco dance went on way too long.

If your entertainment budget will stretch to only one performance, this is the 'must see' of the year ! Energetic, enthusiastic and toe tapping performance...... For those unfamiliar with the Bollywood phenominen , this will be a real 'learning moment' Definately five stars!

The show was full of great performers, dancers, songs, and had a lot of energy. Although the story line tends to be a bit dull at times; the music and dancing makes up for most of it!

A lot of colour, rythme, nice costum, no dead time. The story is well told. Accoustic was fine and not aggressive to the listener. The dancers and the choreography were done candidely which is the quality that comes out of the show. The ending choreography (Disco) was excellent.

If you don't know anything about India, GO! All the acts area wonderful! It's unbelievable how that dancers are good!

Beautiful colours, beautiful dancing with great music to make a totally enjoyable evening.

I would recommend this show to anyone who likes music and great dancing. The storyline was kept simple to show off the amazing routines that were choreographed. It takes you from the traditional style of dancing right through to a more modern style for today's younger generation. The selection of costumes were very colorful and stunning to look at. The show was very engaging allowing the audience to join in and dance, when to cast came down into the audience to get some dancers!

Anyone going to see this for a story will be disappointed, but if you're there for the music, the dancing, and the costumes you will love this. Highly entertaining, and for the women, Uday is quite ab-tastic and the costume designer...who we love...took full advantage of this.

I thought the Merchants of Bollywood's dancers were just fantastic and sooo talented. I loved watching them. However, I had hoped to hear live singing and some live music with traditional instruments or any type of instrument. The live music aspect was severely lacking - and took away from the experience.

I wasn't a big Bollywood fan previous to this performance, but I did watch a couple films. As a regular theatre goer I decided to take the young lady out to something different and I was pleasantly surprised!! The dancing was was exceptional LIVE and the storyline and humour kept me very entertained!! Overall I recommended this show to my friends who weren't familiar with Bollywood Culture.

The Merchants of Bollywood took me by surprise. Firstly, it started on time which is rare for an east indian event, and secondly kept me spellbound to the very end. The standard of the performance was unrivalled, the flow of the storyline seamless and the theatre hall itself well suited for this event. May we see more productions of this calibre.

I took my family to see The Merchants Of Bollywood last Sunday afternoon. The show was just incredible. Great music, dances and the performers were just amazing. Very professional musical from Bollywood. Wish I could go back and see it again and again... Thank you all and congrats for the fantastic show. Please come back soon. R.

I enjoyed the performance and glad I attended the show, but I was not blown away. I give 5 stars to the performers for their incredible energy, but only 3 stars to the show itself. The storyline was a bit cheesy and hard to follow. There was supposed to be a falling out between granddaughter and grandfarther over style of dance, but it was very difficult to understand or see this difference in styles. The attempt to tell this story was just OK, not great. Dance routines were top notch, although a bit repetitive throughout the show. I previously saw Bombay Dreams which blew me away. I guess I was expecting the same reaction for this show and it did not happen. By the way, someone has to do something about the audio for the speaking parts, it was awful. Almost impossible to understand.

It was an unforgettable and amazing show from Bollywood. I would recommend friends and family to go and see the show for the experience. It was unqiue and the dancers had so much energy in them that's what made it unforgettable.

Their energy, became one with my energy. Their story plucked the strings of my heart. Filled with a whole range of emotions for me...morose. hilarious, poignant, exhilarating, reverent... thank goodness for a joyful vibrant ending. I left on a high, and you can bet I'm coming back for a fix this weekend!
