Review Roundup: CHICKEN & BISCUITS Opens on Broadway; What Did the Critics Think?
www.broadwayworld.com: This dynamic ensemble cast leads a raucous family comedy so full of laughter and love, it'll leave you begging for seconds. The Jenkins family is coming together to celebrate the life of their father-hopefully without killing each other! But any hopes for a peaceful reunion unravel when a family secret shows up at the funeral. CHICKEN & BISCUITS had its world premiere on February 28, 2020 at Queens Theatre, but the engagement was cut short less than two weeks later, when the theater industry suspended operations due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Since the pandemic caused so many shows that were supposed to open a year and half ago, open now, I feel like most articles I have read about shows opening are shows that I have known about for a long time and read articles about last year. But I have not heard of this show, which is refreshing to read about. It seems like the critics really did like this show, which is great because it seems like a funny show that has good representation. Some the reviews said it was a great new show, some said I was nothing new, so I would be very interested in watching this show. I do think it is interesting to read reviews because all of them are so different, they have commonalities but they all have different things that they like and different things that they don’t like. Art is so subjective, that it is so hard to take any of these reviews as truth, which is why I really appreciate the review roundups.
