Show Description
Presented by the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts
31 Broadway Shows in 90 Hilarious Minutes
Direct from a smash New York Engagement Gerard Alessandrini’s hit new musical FORBIDDEN BROADWAY: Merrily We Stole A Song is a hilarious musical spoof of Broadway’s biggest shows and brightest stars.
Feeling “completely inspired” by the latest crop of Broadway musicals, Alessandrini lampoons The Great White Way’s biggest shows and stars in this love letter to musical theater. Up to the minute spoofs include comic looks at Eddie Redmayne in Cabaret, The Outsiders, And Juliet, Six, and Back to the Future, plus classic looks at Les Miz, Phantom of the Opera, Wicked and The Lion King.
FORBIDDEN BROADWAY has been a theatrical institution since 1982, when Gerard Alessandrini created the first edition that lampooned the Broadway shows and stars of the day who often stop by to laugh at themselves alongside the public. FORBIDDEN BROADWAY has garnered international acclaim and awards that include 7 Drama Desks Awards, an Obie, a Drama League Award, an Outer Critics Circle Award, 2 Lucille Lortel Awards and a Special Tony® Award along the way.
