Yes, the hit show Forbidden Broadway is back—revitalized, re-energized and renewed as Forbidden Broadway: Alive & Kicking. There’s no plot but there is a whole lot of comedy as Forbidden Broadway: Alive & Kicking spoofs the most popular shows and biggest stars.
Synopsis
It is one of the cleverest sendups around. Forbidden Broadway: Alive & Kicking offers 27 side splitting musical numbers and sketches that lampoon the Great White Way’s best-known performers and shows. It is hilarious, irreverent, smart, wry, witty and more. The talented cast burlesques stars such as Steve Kazee, Audra McDonald, Matthew Broderick, Idina Menzel and Patti LuPone and shows like Evita, Newsies, Annie, The Book of Mormon and Nice Work If You Can Get It. You don’t have to be a Broadway aficionado to get the laughs. It’s a brilliantly fun night in the theatre.
