How did they do that?
"Loved the energy of the performers-exciting, remarkably talented, and so much fun to watch. I still can’t figure out how you did several scenes (the beheading, falling down the stairs) but as my wife said, “That’s what makes it theater!” Only negative-the seats were narrow, uncomfortable, with very little legroom. But the show was great!"

Exceeded expectations
"When I saw the pyramids of Giza I said they were larger than life and even bigger than I had dared to imagine. When I heard about this show I was excited but assumed I had made it bigger in my head than reality would allow to actually happen. Nope. Larger than life; exceeded expectations. So so so good. This show is hilarious, the cast is perfectly assigned, you don’t need to have seen the film prior in order to understand the show, the scenes are impeccable, the Fall is perfection, and singing is excellent!"

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.
