Forbidden Broadway: Merrily We Stole a Song
31 Broadway Shows. 90 Hilarious Minutes. Zero Mercy.

Fresh from its smash New York run, Gerard Alessandrini’s Forbidden Broadway: Merrily We Stole a Song is a side-splitting musical roast of Broadway’s biggest hits and brightest stars.

This brand-new edition skewers everything from Cabaret and The Outsiders to & JulietSix, and Back to the Future—with classic jabs at Les MisérablesPhantomWicked, and The Lion King. No show is safe, no diva is spared, and no note goes un-parodied.

Since 1982, Forbidden Broadway has been Broadway’s funniest tradition, earning a Special Tony® Award and a slew of other honors for its sharp wit and loving satire. With 31 musicals in just 90 minutes, it’s a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud evening for theater lovers and insiders alike.

If you love Broadway, you’ll laugh yourself silly. If you hate Broadway… you’ll laugh even harder!
