As a mama of a four-year-old with autism, I am so glad this is out there. I can’t bring myself to watch the documentary quite yet because our diagnosis is so new, and I don’t think I would want to see the show until he is older because things are so uncertain right now. But he does have therapy every day through a center very much like this, but we are lucky enough where our therapist comes into our home. When he is older, though, he will probably go to a center very similar to the one in the story. It’s nice to know there are things out there for him, even theater. Plus, I’m from Ohio so, you know.

I admit that I bought a ticket to this show after Mickey Jo announced he would see it, but it is a show that I would have been interested in seeing otherwise. Anyway, I was able to get a ticket to the same performance and I saw Mickey Jo and Aeron walk in 3 rows seated behind me on my left! After the show, I met the two of them and one of their friends. I am so sorry that I did not get to say hi to Aeron and the friend, but it was a pleasure to talk to Mickey Jo for a bit. Hope I didn't delay all your post-show plans because the show does end late. Thank you all! BTW, I do agree with most of Mickey Jo's assessment here. Great acting and casting. A new work from all of the parents' perspectives (and the doctor and his daughter) would be a compelling follow-up to this musical, and then this musical can be rewritten to do justice to the stories of the 7 individuals of the group. If you have a lot of good material, why not split it.

I saw the show a few weeks ago. I loved it, and identified a lot with the characters (especially Meredith), but I also agree with everything you said about the focus on Dr. Amigo. I was getting frustrated with how often the show would go back to him. The entire thing with him meeting the reporter at the bar should have been cut -- it was way too drawn out, and didn't serve the plot at all. I would have been more OK with the stuff with his daughter if it had been worked into the main plot a little better, but that whole thing with the journalist just annoyed me. If they were going to focus on his daughter, then I wish there'd been a bit more of her relationship with the patient who she'd been friends with when they were kids -- that's a pretty common experience for autistic kids, where childhood friends drift away to new interests, and it could have been explored more. The night I saw it, there was an understudy on for Drew, and he was fantastic. I learned later that that night had been his Broadway debut (which I'd suspected from the way that everyone else was hugging him at the curtain call), and I thought he did an amazing job with the role.

@@MickeyJoTheatre I also think that the marketing for this show really didn't do it justice. The TV commercials didn't convey much of anything about the show. What seems like the obvious thing (to me) would be to have short videos focusing on each character on their social media accounts, since those individual characters are really the heart of the story, but they didn't post anything like that until very recently. I would have gone with "So Much in Common" for the Thanksgiving parade performance for similar reasons -- it lets a few of the individual characters shine, as opposed to the group number (which makes little sense out of context) that they did.

I saw this show last year & enjoyed it. "Heart-warming" is the perfect adjective to describe it. The songs are really good & most of the performances are excellent. However, it's a small, intimate show told in a pretty conventional way. As you said at the start - it's very difficult for a show to succeed on Broadway w/o big stars or a well-known IP. HTDIO would have been a big success if it had been presented off-Broadway. It aimed too high however, to be on Broadway. P.S. the audience at the perf. I attended was wildly enthusiastic. There were many young people in the theater that night, & as I left I realized they were part of some kind of group, cause they were all being gathered by some adults to get on buses. I don't know if they themselves were part of an autistic community, or a school group. But in any case, the show really seemed to connect with them. So I think this show could have a life after it closes on Broadway.

Would’ve loved to see more of Mel, less of Meredith. And we hardly even got to see Remy! We saw more of the neurotypical daughter than some of the individual autistic characters, which feels… illogical in a musical about autism? Feels a pity to feature the “boy meets girl” trope instead of expanding past the heteronormativity they have Mel mention. It’s like the show is so close to getting the point. They allow Mel to mention being LGBT, but don’t do anything to actually uplift and feature LGBT voices. Like, why couldn’t Jessica reveal that she loves Caroline and that’s why she hates the bf so much? It’d be kind of an overused trope, but not as overused as the show’s ending lol. This is where I feel Kimberly Akimbo did a slightly better job.

I laughed, I cried, I wanted to take down the pet shop manager. I said to myself at the time it would need some Dear Evan Hansen marking oomph to help it find its audience. I’m so sad it’s closing and that more people won’t get to see the good things this show had going for it. I hope it tours, or finds some other next chapter. I do agree with everything you said, though. We needed less of the doctor and daughter. We needed a central person or two to lead the story rather than 7. It’s hard having so many people get a piece of the story in just a couple of hours. That said, I’d see it again if I got the chance because it is good and just the kind of show my soul needs these days. - Jeff

Some characters need more development and some needed less, like twos struggle seemed to be an off stage conflict and the other only struggle seems to be needing her Mom's credit card to buy a dress. (def on par for a rich neighborhood in Columbus Ohio, #smh) The score was not the best on Broadway either but some parts were gems. Also why was Mr Amigo straight in the show but gay in real life? It was also weird having the only out gay character having the only negative conflict story line that didn't happen that way in the documentary. So lots was weird with this one. I teared up during Remys Song, Audience cried during the leads first song about getting into college and test scores.

You hit it completely on the head, every point. One thing I’ll add, the specific point (besides the pre show address to the audience) where I felt, this - this is the show - was the first time you saw the young cast performing their number, where the whole group of them were involved in the staging - the moving of the scenery, the background vocals - for once I felt here they are telling me their story, taking control of their story. There was also an amazing energy and movement to it that was mostly absent from the rest of the show’s pedestrian staging. Maybe that speaks to that missing ‘autism point of you’ you were talking about. Man that young cast was wonderful, but unfortunately in search of a better show.

I'm not autistic and haven't seen the show, but I do work with autistic people and have a relative with ASD. What you're saying about the special interests actually might be quite representative. "Leaning on it too heavily" is kind of what "special interests" are, or perhaps more accurately, what they're percieved as by neurotypicals (non-autistic people). Some autistic people have difficulty engaging with things outside of their interests, so leaning on their interests to understand other things can be helpful. (I'm saying -some-, because there's a lot of variety within ASD)

Ok I’m back after seeing the musical on Saturday. I was expecting to be really disappointed, and I wasn’t. I actually loved HTDIO. It wasn’t perfect, some lyrics maybe needed some work (and idk how they got away with 0 autistic ppl on the creative team in 2024), but I think I disagree with the feedback that the autistic characters weren’t fleshed out enough. Two of them could have used more time, imo, but I think I got a good sense of most of them! The doctor showed up a little too much, but not a lot too much. And maybe that was the point? The actor made the audience at my viewing absolutely hate him, which takes some talent. On a personal note, I sobbed during intermission because I have lived Mel’s workplace experience; I’m still living it. Being seen as combative and not a team player when I’m just trying to figure out what people want from me…that’s my entire story in the workforce, and I have a pretty good job now (health insurance and days off and whatnot). I know representation doesn’t lead to rights, I know some autistic people aren’t vibing with this show, and that’s valid…maybe I’m just a tired autistic millennial who needed to be heard after years of shouting, “I’m doing everything I can to meet your needs, what do you want from me?”

I completely agree with the point that Dr Amigo takes too much of the spotlight, especially in a show that is known for being about autistic ppl played by autistic ppl, having the lead be the non autistic therapist who does ableist things is frustrating. I would like to push back on the idea that they use the characters’ special interests too much. Oftentimes for autistic ppl (being one myself) our special interests are our gateway into the world, we connect so much of our experience to the special interest in order to make sense of everything happening around us, so that felt very realistic to me

“How to fall in a out of love in nazi-era Berlin” The very cynical part of me is not surprised to hear the musical is dominated by the non-autistic character. While the actors are autistic the creatives are not, and I wonder if they related more to the doctor, or felt the audience would. Also, there can be a thing where non-autistic people are interested in autistic people in the same kind of in a way they would be with a cute dog, so they will be interest in a sweet narrative but they don’t see us as fully human so that’s why they haven’t develop the autistic characters. I haven’t seen the musical so I don’t know if either of these ideas are accurate. I think the great thing the show will do is give these autistic actors a platform, at their next audition they won’t have to prove they can do a Broadway show, just that they can do the part.

I feel the role of Dr. Amigo was meant to be for a marquee actor. Caesar Samayoa is the only person that currently has a Wikipedia article. (Andrew Kober also has a Wikipedia article. And he grew up in Ohio!) He is the leading "adult" character. Maybe that's why there had to be a higher focus on him in the writing of the musical, and the singular blogger was not enough of an antagonist. I like the presence of the daughter Ashley because without her, it makes it look like Dr. Amigo is running the sessions and the centre himself, which feels unrealistic to me.

There is so much that I love about the show but when I saw it the second time I was just not interested in Dr. Amigo, and wished there was a stronger focus on the main seven characters as they were the focus. As for the music there were so many great moments, Waves and Wires, Reincarnation, Nothing at All, Building Momentum were the standouts for me.

I've already written this before but I still think it needs to be reiterated: The fact that How to Dance is closing is devastating. As an autistic individual, I applaud it as a job well done in showing an autistic experience. One of my favorite things was at the beginning, it states "if you've met one person with autism, you've met one person with autism." The scene Mickey Joe describes about the job interaction has happened so often to me as an autistic person and it was hard to watch but also made me realize I was not alone. Coming as an autistic individual who has seen terrible portrayals of autism on screen, it's a travesty this is closing.

I'm seeing this with my mom on 2/10, and I'm nervous. My plan wasn't to see it with her, but it's closing so soon we realized we have to just jump on it. My fear is that she's gonna love it and I'm not, and there won't be space for my feelings about it. I'm trying to frame it in my head as, "it's not really for autistic people like me, it's for non-autistic people who want to empathize with autistic people." That's hard to do since they want autistic people to see it. Also...I'm super hecking nervous now that I know the "special interests as metaphors" bit is used so much. Ya know some people cycle through "special interests," kind of like hobbies? And ya know how for non-autistic people it would just be called "expertise?" Like...fellow autistic people in the comments, what are your primary interests? Are they metaphors for other things, or nah? For me, the activism I participate in obv has bigger implications. But my boundless love of the Sims 3? A cappella music? Attempting not to unalive my plants? I don't think so.

I'm not positive, but I don't think the show itself uses the term "special interest," though I could be misremembering. I didn't think the metaphors were over-used -- it seemed to me more like just how some of the characters thought about things, like the guy who's really into math and engineering wanting things to be orderly and logical, or the girl who's always reading about Australia would point out things that are related to Australia. I know that I've tried to explain my own brain by making analogies to hardware vs. software, or operating systems vs. applications, so it didn't seem that far out to me.
