The eagerly anticipated musical adaptation of the 1992 Universal Pictures movie has been wowing on Broadway and is now winging its way to you on tour, bringing high camp night after night!
Produced and written by Marco Pennette, direction and choreography come from Tony-nominated Christopher Gattelli. Join Helen Sharp and Madeline Ashton, former friends who now compete for the same man's affection, and find a solution that is simply to die for. This dark comedy is an essential addition to your diary, so get your tickets now!
Two long-time frenemies, Madeline, a washed-up stage and screen star, and Helen, a once dowdy writer now transformed and glamorous, reignite their bitter rivalry over love, fame, and beauty. After Madeline steals Helen's fianc, Ernest, and their lives fall into various forms of disrepair, both women discover a mysterious woman named Viola Van Horn, who offers them a magical, age-defying potion.
The potion gives them eternal youth and invincibility - but at a gruesome cost. Their renewed obsession with outshining and outliving one another spirals into an absurd, gory, and hilarious series of physical showdowns, as neither can die but both refuse to lose.
