Millikin University welcomes the hysterical
Broadway’s Next H!T Musical to the Kirkland Fine Arts Center on Saturday, Oct. 6 at 8 p.m.
Broadway’s Next H!T Musical is the only unscripted theatrical awards show. Master improvisers gather made up, hit song suggestions from the audience and create a spontaneous evening of music, humor, and laughter. The audience votes for their favorite song and watches as the cast turns it into a full blown improvised musical complete with memorable characters, witty dialogue, and plot twists galore.
Broadway’s Next H!T Musical abandons the same old song and dance to create a brand new, fully improvised comedy. Broadway’s Next H!T Musical has performed recently at The Triad, Tribeca Film Festival, and at the New York Musical Theater Festival, among many others.
The show’s first act is an award ceremony spotlighting songs from four “Best Musical” nominees based on audience-created song titles, and the second act is the entire musical based on the winning song from act one. Under the direction of improvisation veterans Rob Schiffman and Deb Rabbai,
Theater Week hailed the show as “brilliant” and
The New York Post called Broadway’s Next H!T Musical “remarkable.”
