Forbidden Broadway (Rude Awakening)
Choose options
Gerard Alessandrini’s long-running musical parody revue franchise 'Forbidden Broadway' targets the shallow machinery of modern theatrical celebrity and commercial hype. Staged at the 47th Street Theatre with an award-winning book, this *Rude Awakening* edition uses an eclectic mix of show tune pastiches to follow the bickering rivalries, corporate budgets, and artistic pretensions that govern contemporary Broadway, executing fully sung vignettes lampooning long-running blockbusters, serving as an essential anchor for serious comedy historians.
