St Louis Metro East Community Theater

This is not a FUR SURE for me. Depends on the weather... And I'm not buyin' a ticket. Just going for a free seat.

Get ready to laugh! It’s the Renaissance, and Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate for a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of the egocentric, charismatic dramatic megastar star of the time, William Shakespeare! When a soothsayer predicts that the future of theatre involves singing, dancing and acting at the same time, the brothers set out to create the world’s first musical. But fame isn’t everything, and they realize that reaching the top means being true to thine own self — and all that jazz. Something Rotten! is a comic mashup of 16th-century Shakespeare and 21st-century Broadway that proves “nothing’s as amazing as a musical.” A Muny premiere!

A Classical Music Duel turns catastrophically comedic

Four hands. Eighty-eight keys. Boundless brilliance. Get ready for one wildly funny explosion of talent that journeys through the world of music lessons, childhood dreams, and the relentless pursuit of greatness. 2 Pianos 4 Hands follows “piano nerds” Ted and Richard as they navigate pushy parents, eccentric teachers, brutal competitions, and the eternal question: how far can talent—and sheer determination—really take you? Featuring the music of Bach, Beethoven, Billy Joel, Jerry Lee Lewis and more, this dazzling display of musicianship is a tour-de-force performance of live music that not only hits all the right notes, it tickles the ivories and your funny bone too.

Director: Tom Frey

Madeline Ashton is the most beautiful actress (just ask her) ever to grace the stage and screen. Helen Sharp is the long-suffering author (just ask her) who lives in her shadow. They have always been the best of frenemies…until Madeline steals Helen’s fiancé away. As Helen plots revenge and Madeline clings to her rapidly fading star, their world is suddenly turned upside down by Viola Van Horn, a mysterious woman with a secret that’s to die for.

After one sip of Viola’s magical potion, Madeline and Helen begin a new era of life (and death) with their youth and beauty restored…and a grudge to last eternity.

Now a warning! You may not be ready for the unbelievable amount of comedy, glamour, and magic onstage at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre. Death Becomes Her is a “wildly entertaining, perfect musical comedy. It grabs the audience by the jugular and doesn’t let go” (Deadline). Starring Tony nominees Megan Hilty, Jennifer Simard, and Christopher Sieber, plus Grammy® winner Michelle Williams, with direction and choreography by Tony winner Christopher Gattelli, Death Becomes Her is “a laugh-filled, tuneful musical to die for” (Variety) and “a cheek-aching laughter roller coaster — the most fun night out on Broadway!” (The Daily Beast). Experience the “savagely funny” (Time Out) pop-culture phenomenon that’s been certified “hilarious” by The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, Z100, Beyoncé (!!), Goldie Hawn, Superman aka David Corenswet, Michelle Williams (the other one), and countless fans on Instagram, TikTok, and beyond. See it now, and laugh for eternity.
