Shitzprobe: The Improvised Broadway Musical at Laurie Beechman Theatre

Welcome to the opening (and sadly, the closing) night of a brand-new musical! What’s it called? You get to choose!

Shitzprobe is a fully improvised musical that features a Broadway star throwing away the script and making it all up on the spot. Every song, lyric, line of dialogue and dance move is totally improvised, accompanied by a live band creating the score right before your eyes. Each performance of Shitzprobe is the premiere of a brand-new musical that has never been performed before and will never be performed again. And YOU are part of the show's creation - simply shout out the title of a musical that doesn’t exist, and watch it come to life! Shitzprobe audiences have inspired shows like “Ladies Who Lie”, “Can She Even Walk in Heels?”, and “Unconventionally Unattractive”. 

Past guests include Tony Award Winner James Monroe Iglehart (Aladdin, Spamalot, Freestyle Love Supreme), Tony Award nominee Christopher Sieber (Shrek, Spamalot, The Prom), Jessica Vosk (Wicked, Hell’s Kitchen), Jackie Hoffman (Feud, Hairspray), Julie Benko (Funny Girl), Barrett Wilbert Weed (Heathers, Mean Girls), Nicole Parker (Wicked, Mad TV, Titanique), and Broadway stars from Into The Woods, Wicked, Come From Away, Waitress, Company, and more. The Shitzprobe cast features the best musical improvisers in New York City, who have been seen on Comedy Central, Adult Swim, at the world-renowned Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and in shows such as Wicked, The Prom, The Book of Mormon, Freestyle Love Supreme, and Death Becomes Her.
