Amazing and funny show
"We had an amazing time watching this classic with a funnier twist than the movie we knew ! Had great expectations and it didn’t disappoint. However, on a negative note, the AC was going way too strong in the theatre and we were frozen."

Brilliant in every way!
"This show takes elements of thr movie everyone loves and adapts it all perfectly for the stage. The cast in this production is phenomenal. The comedic timing and presence of it all is spot on. It's a comedic roller coaster with some amazing music and talent! We came to New York specifically to see this show, and it was everything we could have hoped for it to be."

Best there is!
"Everything from the costume design, lighting and set was perfect from the start. And while we didn’t get to see the show with Megan and Jennifer in it, their understudies and the entire cast did such a great job. It was absolutely hilarious! The theatre is set up so well that there isn’t a bad seat in the house. We laughed the entire time and would absolutely go back again. Hoping this show pulls a “Hamilton” and is offered on demand for streaming at some point!"

Wonderful
"We saw the show with Dee Roscioli standing in for Megan Hilty. Dee will remind you of Arianna Grande in Wicked. The lighting and sound production were awesome and the stunts used to emulate the story and movie CGI are clever. The entire cast sing with clarity and don't seem to have any limits in range or volume. They own their characters and you'll be laughing throughout the entire 2 and half hours. It is a sexy show as well with some cleavage display and abundant innuendo. Or maybe that's abundant cleavage thanks to Jennifer Simard. Great show! "

So fun and hilarious
"This show was an absolute blast. The set was great, every single person on stage - from leads to support to ensemble - did an amazing job, the costumes were stunning, and the jokes were delivered so well; I laughed almost the entire time. I knew all the star women would be amazing, and then Christopher Sieber was also able to stand out in his own way. Would recommend to anyone. "

Hilarious show filled with marvelous talent!
"Loved the show. Clever, very funny, great music, very talented cast. Beautiful set. A few raunchy parts of the script render it not suitable for really young kids-and they probably wouldn’t understand it anyway-but was perfectly fine for my 15 year old. Recommend watching the movie first for frame of reference. "

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). Starring Tony nominees Megan Hilty, Jennifer Simard, and Christopher Sieber, plus Grammy® winner Michelle Williams, 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.
