Megan Hilty is at the top of her game, giving her all to this role. She's a talented performer and, in my opinion, perfectly suited to the role of Madeline. - Jennifer Simard as Helen was a wonderful foil to Hilty's Madeline. Madeline is very over-the-top, and Helen, at least for the first half, is a poised and boring woman. Personally, I preferred Jennifer's voice to Megan's, even though both were excellent. I felt Jennifer articulated better. This was my first time seeing her in a production, and I was amazed. - The scene where Madeline gets pushed down the stairs is so cleverly done. I'm not sure if Megan Hilty had a stunt double for that scene, but it looked like she did it to me. If anyone knows more about the technical aspects of this part, I'd be interested in learning more. I don't have any photos because they were prohibited.

I was curious to see how they were going to adapt the movie, and wondered if the dark humor would be glossed over. It didn't take long to have those concerns addressed and taken away! This is a funny show. The acting is excellent and the songs are very well done. We enjoyed every single minute. Bravo to the cast and crew! A+

  • Death Becomes Her is the ultimate guilty pleasure. This campy musical is a must-see for fans of the 1992 film. With Tony-winner Christopher Gattelli at the helm and a star-studded cast featuring Tony nominees Megan Hilty (Wicked, Smash) and Jennifer Simard (Company, Disaster|), and Destiny's Child's Michelle Williams, this Broadway production promises to be a dazzling spectacle. Prepare to be enchanted (or horrified) as these frenemies chase eternal youth with hilarious consequences. Get your tickets today for a night of pure, unadulterated fun!

    The story

    Madeline and Helen, locked in a lifelong rivalry, are willing to do anything to stay young and beautiful. When a mysterious elixir promises eternal youth, they seize the opportunity. But their quest for perfection takes a sinister turn as they discover the potion’s horrifying side effects. As their bodies begin to defy the laws of nature, their friendship is put to the ultimate test. Will their obsession with youth consume them both?

    Dark comedy enthusiasts | Fans of the original film | Pop culture aficionados
