The Adobe Theater to Present FORBIDDEN BROADWAY'S GREATEST HITS, 12/5-28

By:

What happens when Broadway's greatest musical legends meet Broadway's greatest satirist? Absolute hilarity! FORBIDDEN BROADWAY'S GREATEST HITS, created and written by Gerard Alessandrini, is a funny, loving, tongue in cheek, and tremendously entertaining tribute to some of the theater's greatest stars and songwriters.

Director Art Tedesco ("9 to 5", "The Producers", "It's A Wonderful Life") guides this two- act show of high energy song and dance, poking gentle fun at Annie, Chicago, Les Miserables, Wicked, Mama Mia, Rent, A Chorus Line, Hairspray, Fiddler On The Roof, Spamalot, and more. No Broadway show - or Broadway performer - is off-limits!

The Adobe Theater's presentation of FORBIDDEN BROADWAY'S GREATEST HITS combines the considerable talents of Albuquerque theater favorites Kevin Fannin ("Les Miserables"), Carolyn Hogan ("My Favorite Year"), Tyler Alan Strand ("Juno & The Paycock"), and Ceptembre Tedesco ("Foul Play Cafe"). These talented performers promise a good show and a good time for all who attend.

Take a break from the hustle and bustle of the Holiday Season and treat yourself to FORBIDDEN BROADWAY'S GREATEST HITS. You'll agree with the reviewers who said: "Wonderful! There's no Broadway like Forbidden Broadway!" (Entertainment Weekly); "Gut-bustingly funny! It's a Forbidden treasure." (NY Post), and; "Even if you've never been within 1000 miles of Broadway you'll still love Forbidden Broadway." (Boca Raton News)

FORBIDDEN BROADWAY'S GREATEST HITS opens on December 5th and runs through December 28th. Performances are at Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm [note the new starting time] and Sundays at 2pm. Proceeds from a special 'Pay What You Will' performance on Thursday, December 18th (7:30pm curtain) benefits the actors and crew. Tickets are only $15, seniors and students $13.
