Review: Hitt Records at the Black Ensemble Theatre (Through January 26, 2025)

Two men open up their record store called Hitt Records in the morning. They only sell older records and they love to tell the stories behind the music. These tales always include the modern artists that they influenced. After each story, the stage spins and the song is performed. Only two artists get multiple songs, Bob Marley and The Pointer Sisters. 

The singing and the music is very good along with all the dancing. However, the record store part gets a bit repetitive. There isn’t any connective tissue between all the songs like in most jukebox musicals. 

The cast of Hitt Records includes: Lyle Miller, Dennis Dent, Michael Lunder, Vincent Jordan, Rhonda Preston, Qiana McNary, DeVaughn Loman, Dwight Neal, Trequon Tate, Jaitee Thomas, Britt Edwards, and Destin Warner.
