The show Cobra Kai is based off of the events in the movie The Karate Kid. It was made in 2018 by Josh Heald, John Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg in hopes for the Karate Kid saga to live on. The show begins thirty four years after Karate Kid. The dojo name “Cobra Kai” is taken from The Karate Kid, and there are many returning faces including John Kreese, Paul Dugan, and Terrance Silver. This show explores many different forms of relationships and how they can teach us to be better people.

I want to preface this review by saying I did not hate this production, and I fear everything I say next is going to make you think I hate it. I don’t hate it; I desperately need to see this weird show again to better understand it. It is a unique piece of theatre, unlike anything I have ever seen in my life and that’s perhaps why I sound so negative, because I don’t have a good frame of reference for understanding a production like this. If you can, I encourage you all to go see Sunset Boulevard.

Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club is the reason my mom and I traveled to New York. Well, not Cabaret specifically. In July of last year, the show announced they had cast Adam Lambert as the Emcee, starring alongside Auli’i Cravalho as Sally Bowles. I love Adam Lambert, I saw him in concert when Queen came to Denver a few years back. My mom really loves Adam Lambert. She has been following him since his American Idol days. We had been thinking of an excuse to do another Broadway trip, and that excuse was Adam Lambert. The trip was loosely planned the same day they announced the casting, and before noon we had bought our tickets. At this performance, we had the full principal cast for the show itself and three understudies for the Prologue Company. We sat in the East Mezzanine, Mezzanine 1, Row B, Seats 114 and 113.
