Created and Written by Gerald Alessandrini

25th Anniversary Tour!

Winner of a 2006 Special Tony Award!

The side-splitting savagery known as Forbidden Broadway is on the road again with their newest edition! Now celebrating its record-breaking 25th year in New York, this year’s Special Victims include the puppets of “Avenue Q”, the witches of “Wicked”, “Billy Joel’s Movin Out”, and new looks at old favorites “La Cage aux Folles”, “Little Shop of Horrors”, “Les Miz”, “Beauty and the Beast”, and “Chicago”. Rounding out the laughs are Mel Brooks’ “The Producers”, Abba’s “Mamma Mia” and “Thoroughly Modern Millie”; with lots more Broadway past and present.

Forbidden Broadway is the recipient of an Obie award, the Outer Critics Circle Award, and the 2005 Drama Desk Award for Best Off Broadway Musical.
