Be sure to check out this musical bursting with contemporary energy chronicling the love triangle between Aida, a Nubian princess stolen from her country, Amneris, an Egyptian princess, and Radames, the soldier they both love. Aida is an epic tale of love, loyalty and betrayal, with an exhilarating Tony and Grammy Award-winning score by Elton John and Tim Rice, their first collaboration since writing the music for the worldwide phenomenon The Lion King.

    I love this play and this was an excellent production, as good as the Broadway version I have seen in the past. I have seen it twice already and may go back again for the last day! I was either fighting tears or had chills running up my arms with many of the songs, fantastic job for such a young group of people. I go to lots of theatre and Valley Youth Theatre does a great job, specifically Cats and Beauty and the Beast and now Aida meet any Broadway production. Collapse

    I was really impressed by the valley youth theater "Aida" i was crying half way through the 2nd act and didn't stop crying till i was out of the theater and in my car. Amazing Voices from not only the leads but the entire cast. I knew it was going to be an amazing show by the end of "Every story is a love story"(opening number). DROP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND GO SEE THIS SHOW! By the end i forgot this was a youth theater, a broadway quality show for only about 20$ per ticket Why wouldn't you go? Collapse

    My wife and I were extremely pleased with the production of Aida. It's highly professional and the leads have incredible power in their voices. We saw Aida on Broadway and were more impressed with this production. It speaks well for the younger, rising stars from our community. Collapse

    I have seen Aida performed by Valley Youth Theatre at the Herberger twice. I am seriously thinking about going again this weekend! The show is incredible. After a while you feel as though you are watching seasoned adults. The entire cast (as well as the costumes) absolutely sparkle. This is not really a show for kids, more PG 13. Don't miss this show, it closes this weekend! Collapse

    Wow, what a performance! I was drawn in from the beginning and didn't want it to end. It was perfectly presented. The singing of all the 5 or 6 primary characters was outstanding. The sets and costumes were great. This was perfectly cast and very well done. I want to go see it again! This is one of the more enjoyable theater performances I've been to (and I have season tickets to Broadway Across America). Collapse
