Show Information

Forbidden Broadway: Merrily We Stole A Song premiered in 2024 at Theater 555 Off-Broadway in New York City. The show is an original musical comedy revue created, written, and directed within the Forbidden Broadway franchise by Gerard Alessandrini, whose satirical theater series has been lampooning Broadway productions and performers for decades. Its title nods to Stephen Sondheim's Merrily We Roll Along, setting the tone for a show built around playful, theater-savvy parody.

This edition is a musical revue featuring a small, versatile cast performing song parodies, comic sketches, celebrity impersonations, and rewritten versions of familiar show tunes. It has played Off-Broadway and has toured to venues including The Hobby Center in Houston. Performances typically run approximately 90 minutes to 2 hours and usually include one intermission.

The Forbidden Broadway franchise has run intermittently since 1982 and is among the longest-lived musical-parody enterprises in theater history. Over the years, it has been refreshed repeatedly to spoof each Broadway season, with numerous editions, cast albums, national and international touring formats, and major recognition including Drama Desk, Obie, and Outer Critics Circle honors. Forbidden Broadway: Merrily We Stole A Song continues that tradition with parodies of the 2023–2024 Broadway season, including Hell's Kitchen, Stereophonic, The Outsiders, The Great Gatsby, and Back to the Future.

Story Summary

Forbidden Broadway: Merrily We Stole A Song is a musical revue built around a fast-moving sequence of parody numbers, comic sketches, and Broadway send-ups. The show brings together spoof versions of current hit musicals, plays, and stage personalities, using familiar theatrical styles and reworked lyrics to comment on the Broadway season with wit and precision.

The experience is unified by its affectionate satire of contemporary theater. A small ensemble moves quickly through costume, wig, prop, and character changes, shifting from one Broadway reference to the next while a live pianist supports the pace and musical humor. The tone alternates between broad comedy, pointed mimicry, and loving celebration, giving audiences a show that roasts Broadway while clearly understanding why people love it.

No knowledge of a single plot is required to enjoy the evening. The show is most rewarding for audiences familiar with Broadway shows and performers, but its quick comic rhythm, live musicality, and theatrical energy deliver the experience directly.

Show Highlights

Forbidden Broadway: Merrily We Stole A Song is packed with quick-hit parodies and character transformations, with each segment designed to land fast and move smoothly into the next theatrical target.

  • Hell's Kitchen Parody — This segment sends up Alicia Keys' jukebox musical, poking fun at its reception and song catalog. It uses the Forbidden Broadway formula of familiar musical reference points, rewritten lyrics, and fast comic timing to turn a current Broadway title into parody material.
  • Stereophonic Parody — A comedic take on the Tony-winning play about a 1970s rock band in the recording studio, this segment leans into the show's theatrical premise and current-season recognition. It gives the revue a chance to spoof a major contemporary play while keeping the pace musical and sharp.
  • The Outsiders Parody — This spoof targets the 2024 Tony-winning musical adaptation of the S.E. Hinton novel and Coppola film. The number draws humor from the show's high-profile Broadway success and recognizable source material.
  • The Great Gatsby Parody — A send-up of the splashy Broadway musical adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel, this segment plays with the scale, style, and theatrical polish associated with the title. It fits the revue's focus on shows audiences are likely to recognize from the current Broadway conversation.
  • Back to the Future Parody — This parody takes aim at the special-effects-driven stage musical based on the film franchise. The segment gives the cast room to lampoon a production known for spectacle while keeping the comedy centered on musical theater parody.
  • Celebrity Impersonation Showcase — One of the revue's signature pleasures is watching performers transform rapidly between Broadway stars. References to figures such as Joel Grey, Alan Cumming, and Eddie Redmayne showcase the cast's mimicry, timing, and quick-change versatility.

Getting Ready for Show Night

Once your tickets are confirmed, a little preparation makes the full experience run smoothly from arrival through the final bow.

  • Download your tickets before you leave. Cell service around the venue can be congested on busy performance nights. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before heading out so you're ready at the door without needing a signal.
  • Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard at most theaters. A portable battery pack is worth having, especially if you're combining the show with dinner or other activities.
  • Arrive at least 30 minutes before curtain. Venue doors open well before the show begins; arriving early gives you time to find your seats and settle in before the house lights go down — and avoids the disruption of late seating, which many theaters restrict.
  • Plan for the intermission. Forbidden Broadway: Merrily We Stole A Song typically includes one intermission during its approximately 90-minute to 2-hour runtime. Lines for concessions and restrooms can build immediately after the act break, so move early if you plan to step out.
  • Know the venue's phone and photography policy. Audiences are asked not to record or photograph during the performance. Silence your phone before the show begins so the cast and audience can stay focused on the performance.
  • For families. The show is generally best suited to teens and adults, especially audiences familiar with Broadway. Very young children may miss some of the theatrical in-jokes and current-season references.
