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+

Did a NYC girls weekend with my adult daughter - NYC and a show . A highlight of the trip, the show we saw last night, "Death Becomes Her", was even better than hoped for,. We really enjoyed, and the seats were great. Booking the show through Headout was easy. Your app is great - kept us informed and in contact from booking, to the night of the show. Many thanks!

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?
