Listen to the song below:

Musical writers Steve Rosen and David Rossmer, whose new musical adaptation of the romantic comedy 50 First Dates is premiering in London on Sunday, said, "We don’t want to hype it up too much, but it might be the funniest, most tuneful score ever written for a musical…and the second funniest, most tuneful score ever written for a play. It makes Hamilton look like Carrie. It makes The Producers look like Moose Murders. It makes the revival of Sunset Boulevard look like the original Sunset Boulevard. If you listen to one concept album full of Broadway stars that sets beloved characters loose on a new adventure in New York City, listen to Ragtime… or this album, this album is also good.”

They’ve been to Wally World, they’ve been to Vegas, and now the Griswolds are going to… Broadway! Yes, the characters you know and love from the hit Warner Bros. Vacation movies are back – and they’re taking their biggest vacation yet.

So, get in your family truckster and join Clark, Ellen, Audrey, and Rusty on their big New York City adventure – where of course, everything goes exactly according to plan. 

Joining Fontana on the album are Tony Award nominee Kerry Butler as ‘Ellen Griswold,’ Livvy Marcus as ‘Audrey Griswold,’ Nathan Levy as ‘Rusty Griswold,’ Jennifer Cody as ‘Madame Sherie,’ Alan H. Green as ‘Naked Commando,’ and Tony Award nominee Andy Grotelueschen as ‘Cousin Eddie.’ Background vocals are by Olivia Griffin, Sarah Bishop, Ross Lekites, and David Rowen. 

The Griswolds’ Broadway Vacation: Original Concept Album is produced by Sonny Paladino & Greg Anthony Rassen with Ken Davenport serving Executive Producer, and Mary Elizabeth Dina serving as Associate Executive Producer.
