WHAT'S THE BUZZ
‘TITANIQUE’S’ MARLA MINDELLE WILL BRING ‘BIG GAY JAMBOREE’ OFF-BROADWAY THIS FALL.
The show, called 'The Big Gay Jamboree,' is produced by Sue Wagner, John Johnson, and Margot Robbie’s production company LuckyChap.
Marla Mindelle, who starred in and co-created the Off-Broadway hit Titanique, is debuting her new musical The Big Gay Jamboree Off-Broadway this fall.
The show is co-written by Mindelle and is described as a parody of musical theater itself.
Sue Wagner, John Johnson, and Margot Robbie’s production company LuckyChap are serving as producers of the show.
In 2019, LuckyChap had announced a deal to produce the title as a movie musical for Paramount, however that has not yet materialized. Their involvement in the stage show marks LuckyChap’s first foray into theater.
TITANIQUE IS LONDON AND CANADA BOUND!
2023 Lortel Award-winning Best Musical Titanique will have its Canadian premiere this fall, and a London premiere on the horizon.
