Get ready, Broadway fans! The most buzzed-about show of the season, Death Becomes Her, is lighting up the stage and redefining the musical comedy genre. Described as “savagely funny” by Time Out New York and “wildly entertaining” by Deadline, this dazzling production has become the talk of the town — and it’s easy to see why.
Adapted from the cult classic 1992 film, Death Becomes Her follows the eternally glamorous Madeline Ashton (played to perfection by Megan Hilty), a starlet whose beauty and ego are as big as her fading career. Enter Helen Sharp (Jennifer Simard), a brilliant but overshadowed author whose patience finally snaps when Madeline steals her fiancé. The result? A hilarious, high-stakes battle of wits, egos, and a little… magic.
Their already explosive rivalry takes a supernatural twist when Viola Van Horn (portrayed by the irresistibly fabulous Michelle Williams) offers the two frenemies a mysterious potion promising eternal youth and beauty. But as the saying goes, be careful what you wish for. Cue a riotous journey of revenge, vanity, and undead antics, all set to an unforgettable score.
Broadway powerhouses Megan Hilty and Jennifer Simard are the heart and soul of this production, delivering star turns that are nothing short of comedic genius. Hilty’s portrayal of Madeline is a masterclass in diva humor, while Simard’s Helen is equal parts vulnerable and vengeful. The duo’s onstage chemistry is electric, sparking laugh-out-loud moments that leave audiences roaring.
Grammy winner Michelle Williams shines as the enigmatic Viola Van Horn, bringing elegance and sharp wit to her performance. And Christopher Sieber, as Ernest Menville, steals every scene he’s in with impeccable timing and charm.
Death Becomes Her isn’t just a musical — it’s an event. The witty dialogue, larger-than-life characters, and jaw-dropping set design create a theatrical experience unlike any other. Fans of the original movie will delight in the clever nods to its iconic moments, while newcomers will fall in love with its timeless humor and sharp satire.
With glowing reviews from The New York Times, The Daily Beast, and Variety, it’s no wonder this show has been dubbed “a laugh-filled, tuneful musical to die for.”
