MUSICAL! the musical is the ultimate marriage of two wonderful art forms: the involving, emotional world of the modern Broadway musical, and the exciting, creative, and outrageous form of improv! This amazing and highly praised show has delighted both critics and audiences since 1998, when it first opened at the Royal George Theatre in Chicago, IL. Since then, MUSICAL! has played at theaters across the country, performing nearly a thousand full length musicals – all with original music, lyrics, characters, dialogue, and choreography created on the spot.
MUSICAL! the musical is the perfect entertainment for any and every special event. Think of it…a musical about your company, campus, or cohorts! Our cast is available for school, corporate, or private functions – and all of our shows are wonderful for groups from age 5 to 105! A variety of show formats are available – from half-hour shows of outrageous songs (similar to what you see on “Whose Line Is It, Anyway?”) to hour and a half full story Broadway musicals!
