Death Becomes Her is a must see!
"Death Becomes Her was a surprising delight. The songs were incredible and the jokes even more so. We laughed from the opening number to the last scene. Wonderful songs. Wonderful singers However, the theater left a lot to like. The seats were small and uncomfortable and large men or women would certainly not fit well"

Campy excellence
"I loved the unabashed stunts and sass! The primary roles were top of their game - as were the amazing dancing and stunt cast! The Fall was something I want to replay. I was in tears. Finally a show told from the controlling female POV - that includes a wise vanity check! Loved the show."

AMAZING SHOW!!!
"I have been fortunate to have seen about 15 or so shows on Broadway over the past years. For "Death Becomes Her," I had orchestra seats on row 11 near the aisle. It's hard to know where to start! The singing, the dancing, the spectacular sets, the professional orchestra, and superior acting made this one of the best Broadway shows I've ever seen. The three female leads were exceptionally strong beautiful, and talented. Overall, the entire cast was spot-on in their singing and dancing for the duration of this very active show. I strongly and enthusiastically recommend this show to all musical theatre lovers! You won't regret it!"

About Death Becomes Her

Madeline Ashton is the most beautiful actress (just ask her) ever to grace the stage and screen. Helen Sharp is the long-suffering author (just ask her) who lives in her shadow. They have always been the best of frenemies…until Madeline steals Helen’s fiancé away. As Helen plots revenge and Madeline clings to her rapidly fading star, their world is suddenly turned upside down by Viola Van Horn, a mysterious woman with a secret that’s to die for.

After one sip of Viola’s magical potion, Madeline and Helen begin a new era of life (and death) with their youth and beauty restored…and a grudge to last eternity.

Now a warning! You may not be ready for the unbelievable amount of comedy, glamour, and magic onstage at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre. Death Becomes Her is a “wildly entertaining, perfect musical comedy. It grabs the audience by the jugular and doesn’t let go” (Deadline). With direction and choreography by Tony winner Christopher Gattelli, Death Becomes Her is “a laugh-filled, tuneful musical to die for” (Variety) and “a cheek-aching laughter roller coaster — the most fun night out on Broadway!” (The Daily Beast). Experience the “savagely funny” (Time Out) pop-culture phenomenon that’s been certified “hilarious” by The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, Z100, Beyoncé (!!), Goldie Hawn, Superman aka David Corenswet, Michelle Williams (the other one), and countless fans on Instagram, TikTok, and beyond. See it now, and laugh for eternity.
