“Ultimately, A Beautiful Noise is victorious.” – Variety
With special authorization of the king himself, Neil Diamond, A Beautiful Noise The Neil Diamond Musical is named after the superstar’s 1976 album. The jukebox epic takes audiences on a remarkable music trip through sixty years of hits. The storyline was spearheaded by BAFTA Award-winning writer Anthony McCarten while music and lyrics were of course supplied by Diamond himself. The musical premiered on Broadway in 2022 and fans and casual listeners were quick to check out the amazing new bio epic – causing the musical to gross over 1 million Dollars in the box office.
But of course, the musical only got a treatment fit for a legendary performer – that means producers went out to bring all the stops, including securing some of the most magnificent talents in the Broadway circuit.

Meanwhile, the musical also brought in the work of top calibre designers like Tony winner David Rockwell on scenic, Tony nominee Emilio Sosa on costume, Tony winner Kevin Adams on lighting, and Tony winner Jessica Paz on sound.
The musical is indeed as beautiful as one would expect from having a heartwarming storyline to providing an uplifting premise. It’s truly a delight for audiences to go through Neil Diamond’s incredibly diverse catalog. That’s why the musical also garnered some amazing accolades of its own, including three Chita Rivera Awards, two Drama Desk nominations, two Drama League nominations, and an Outer Critics Circle nomination.
“Fantastic music and a really well-crafted story” – Tripadvisor traveler
Besides notable accolades, the musical also pulled in fantastic reviews from the most respected theater critics. Variety lauded the musical for not playing by all the rules of jukebox theater, “It unfolds first as a hit parade within a dramatic retelling of Diamond’s 1960s beginnings in Act 1, followed by a second act set of sequined, post-1960s concerts spliced with portraits of a broken marriage and lonely childhood, and then a denouement of hardcore emotional resolve.” The writer continued, “Ultimately, A Beautiful Noise is victorious.”
Over at New York Theater, the article wrote praises for the exquisite costumes and riveting music. “What follows is one blasting and blinding rock number after another, with Neil in a series of Elvis-like jumpsuits – one black, one white, one red – all covered in sequins.” The writer went on to add, “I’ll admit that after the show ended, I could not keep one of the melodies out of my head.”
