The Queerty had nothing but praise for New York, New York. “Scenic designer Beowulf Boritt captures New York City’s magic and mayhem with architectural detail and occasional whimsy (interior walls are purposefully cropped as if the city’s notoriously expensive square footage couldn’t accommodate), while projection design by Boritt and Christopher Ash and lighting design by Ken Billington flood the theater with a dreamlike quality.”
Meanwhile, the New York Theater commended the musical for its “spectacular sets, first-rate design, and energetic choreographies.” The review further states, “Even when the cast isn’t literally dancing, she suggests the bustle, hustle, and swirl of New York humanity with little wordless vignettes and in other clever ways, working in tandem with the breathtaking scenery.”
