Based on the screenplay of the acclaimed 1994 film by Woody Allen and Douglas McGrath, BULLETS OVER BROADWAY brings the talents of Woody Allen and Tony-Winning director Susan Stroman together for the first time.
Hailed by Time Magazine as, "Musical Theatre Gold!", BULLETS OVER BROADWAY is the hilarious musical comedy about the making of a Broadway show. It's the story of a young playwright who, in desperate need of financial backing for his next show, accepts an offer he can’t refuse from a mobster looking to please his showgirl girlfriend.
The original Broadway production of BULLETS OVER BROADWAY played the St. James Theatre. The production received six Tony-Award nominations, including Best Book of a Musical and Best Choreography.
Don't miss what the New Yorker exclaims as, "a Fun Machine from Start to Finish!" with "zingers and puns, slapstick and visual gags, and tap-dancing chorus girls" (New York Post). Loaded with big laughs, colorful characters, and the songs that made the 20s roar, Bullets Over Broadway is bringing musical comedy back with a bang.
Casting for the national tour of BULLETS OVER BROADWAY is yet to be announced.
