The outrageously funny “Broadway’s Next Hit Musical” returns to Sanford Performing Arts Center on Saturday, February 12, 2022 for one performance at 7:00 p.m. The show last came to the SPAC in February, 2020, just before Covid-19 forced the theater to cancel its series of touring performances.
The only unscripted theatrical award show of its kind, Broadway’s Next Hit Musical hits the stage with four of New York’s finest master improvisers, plus an improv composer at the piano!
Gathering made-up hit song suggestions from the audience, these pros then create a spontaneous showcase of music, humor, and laughter. The audience votes for their favorite song and watches as the cast turns it on-the-spot into a full blown musical—complete with memorable characters, witty dialogue, and plot twists galore. Hailed as all-improvised and all-funny, this evening is a one-of-a-kind experience.
The New York Times calls Broadway’s Next Hit Musical “Hilarious!” Time Out NY says “At last! A musical of, for, and by the people.”
“If you’ve seen this show before, then you know you you’ve NEVER seen this show before,”says SPAC Director, Brett Williams. “Every night is completely different. I’ve seen the show four times and it never disappoints! I’m in awe of these performers who can pull a masterpiece out of the hat every single time.”
Under the direction of improv veterans Rob Schiffmann and Deb Rabbai, TheaterWeek hailed the show as “brilliant” and The New York Post called Broadway’s Next Hit Musical “remarkable.”
