ORIGINAL COMEDY MUSICAL
THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS: A MUSICAL PARODY
THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS: A MUSICAL PARODY, a full length unauthorized (seriously, Universal is probably pretty pissed) parody of the Fast and The Furious franchise, has had 8 sold out shows. Featuring 15 original songs, the hilarious fully-staged, fully-choreographed show lambasts the best car-centric action series ever created. And no, the creators of the show do not believe that “best” is subjective.
The laugh out loud show follows your favorite car-driving gang members battling their greatest foe yet— singing and dancing at the same time. With book, music and lyrics by Brad Silnutzer (Comedy Central Comic to Watch, JFL New Face 2019, Producer on The Bachelor, Netflix’s Cooking on High), Joey Orton (music for Marc E. Bassy, Scott Hoying, Frankie) and Petro A.P. (music for One Direction, Enrique Iglesias, Martin Solveig, Icona Pop), the show features the perfect blend of A-level music production and subversive comedy. The show is directed by Michael Klein (founder of Circadian Pictures) and features all original art and props by designer Andy Aidekman Gross.
Unprecedented in the history of live theater (unless you know another Fast and Furious musical) and featuring a cast of mostly women playing men (take that Shakespeare!), the show parodies the entire franchise, not just the original. This part parody/part love-letter to the franchise is for both fans of the series and people who’ve never heard Dom say “family”.
