Get ready for a theatrical experience like no other! The highly anticipated Broadway debut of Titanique is almost here, and the full cast has been revealed!
This hilarious and critically acclaimed musical phenomenon is set to sail into New York City this spring, and we're thrilled to introduce you to the talented crew that will bring this unique show to life.
But here's where it gets controversial... Titanique takes a wild and quirky approach to the iconic film Titanic, reimagined through the lens of pop legend Céline Dion. Prepare for a fresh take on a beloved story, with a twist of camp and a whole lot of heart.
The cast includes some incredible talents, such as Olivier and Lortel Award-winning actress Marla Mindelle, who will portray the legendary Céline Dion herself. Joining her are Jim Parsons, Melissa Barrera, and Deborah Cox, each bringing their own unique flair to the stage. Frankie Grande, known for his roles in Rock of Ages and Mamma Mia, will also be part of this star-studded ensemble.
And this is the part most people miss... Titanique has an incredible creative team behind it. Co-written by Tye Blue, Marla Mindelle, and Constantine Rousouli, the show has already made a splash Off-Broadway and internationally, winning multiple awards and gaining global recognition. Tye Blue will direct the Broadway production, with choreography by Ellenore Scott, ensuring the show's success on the Great White Way.
The creative team also includes an impressive lineup of designers and musicians, such as Nicholas James Connell, Gabriel Hainer Evansohn, and Grace Laubacher, who will bring their unique vision to the scenic design. Lucille Lortel Award-winning costume designer Alejo Vietti will ensure the characters look as stunning as the show's concept.
The cast is rounded out by the talented Sara Gallo, Polanco Jones, and Kristina Leopold, who will provide the show's vocal foundation as background vocalists. Tess Marshall, Brad Greer, and Kyle Ramar Freeman will serve as understudies, ready to step into their roles with passion and precision.
Titanique's journey to Broadway is an inspiring tale of creativity and perseverance. It all started with a chance encounter in a Los Angeles bar, where a former Fiyero, Sister Mary Robert, and a "RuPaul's Drag Race" producer dreamed up this musical fever dream. And the rest, as they say, is history.
This show has already captivated audiences in eight cities worldwide, including a record-breaking Off-Broadway run. Now, it's time for New York to fall in love with Titanique.
