Duck Commander The Musical

Even if you’re not a fan of the TV show, you’ll enjoy this. The production is top-​notch and the actors can actually act and sing. I’d go see it again.

This show was alright, likely because I’m not a fan of the reality show either… just never thought it was really funny. This show had some funny parts, but also a lot more weird and boring parts. I’m just not sure this was really something that should’ve been made into a musical in the first place…
Since I don’t follow their reality show, this show was at least interesting in the sense that it told the story of Duck Dynasty, the Robertson family and how they started their business and success. I had no idea before this, other than the fact that they got rich making duck callers. The performers were talented for the most part, but the songs were just weird and unappealing.
The showroom was basically half empty and we had an entire section to ourselves! There was no one sitting within 20 rows of us forward or backwards. Although I wouldn’t recommend this show, it doesn’t matter because I heard it’s been cancelled due to lack of sales. That should tell you something, especially because this is a brand new show.

This thing is bad.
It is not Loberace (Cee-​lo) bad; however, it is seriously bad.
It is so bad that it was cancelled within the span of a month. It is so bad that it makes normal, non-​inebriated, non-​redneck patrons cringe out of embarrassment for the actors. It is so bad that one wonders how this book ever got green lighted.
Super-​ironically, this version of the Roberson story paints them as the victims of the controversies created by their own far-​right wing, hateful patriarch. It shows Father Pat — during one of the countless flashbacks — battering a landlord and that landlord’s wife or girlfriend or sister/​girlfriend or whoever; but let’s be clear, he is born-​again so relax on the judgment. Praise Smith & Wesson.
The book of this musical is horrifically terrible. The score … ditto. The actors try … they are up there trying their asses off two times a night. I genuinely feel bad for them.
If there were Razzies for musicals, Duck Commander The Musical would sweep …
This propaganda is trash. One-​star.
Postscript. U-​S-​A!

I’m not a huge duck dynasty fan to begin with, which I’m sure influenced this review some. I’m also not a musical watching kind of guy! Which is why my wife enjoyed the show more than I did. I thought the singing was good and there were some funny parts. Overall the show seemed a bit long. Story was based on how duck commander came to be from start to present. I yawned a couple time but didn’t fall asleep, so it wasn’t a total bore. It’s family friendly and entertaining, just not my cup of tea!

Great show, great sets, very good actors with great voices, a fun lighted hearted night with plenty of laughs without trashy dialogue. It was done in a very clever way incorporating the real life Robersons on a screen talking at times in kind of a fun way. We were pleasantly surprised and if you are a fan of decent entertainment please support the show, we love in Vegas and see a lot and this was worthwhile

I feel badly giving such a low rating because the sets were really cool, and the actors were talented — especially their voices. Everyone was a great singer, and they did a pretty good job finding look-​a-​likes for the real-​life people they were representing. BUT, here are the negatives: the story kind of jumped around a lot and I wasn’t sure how much of it was true, or happened when. They talk about using «theatrical license» regarding the timing of certain things and that just confused me more. (This is coming from someone who has seen maybe ½ of 6 or 7 episodes throughout the years. Also, I looked on Wikipedia after the show, to make sense out of what I didn’t understand. I still don’t feel satisfied about the story). And, their were so many slow parts that the show felt like it could have ended 3x before the actual ending. We would’ve left early but I really wanted to find out how it would end. Unfortunately, only 2 numbers were exceptional. So, that said, I guess if you’re already a hard core fan of the TV show it’s worth it to watch, but otherwise, you may want your money back. (Sorry, again, to the talented cast & musicians. You guys all did a great job with a badly written show.)

Broadway. it’s not. Went to see the show and although I sat through the entire 90 minute show it was just lacking an overall wow factor. This is a musical telling the story of the Robertson Family of Duck Dynasty fame from their humble roots to now. Definitely a show you can take children to. Being from NYC I personally would not recommend it. The reasons why I say that is because I read Robin Leach’s review in the LV Sun and the aspirations of the shows developers are the great white way, but I just don’t see it.
