About this Event
From the guy who brought you We Are The Tigers and Carrie 2: The Rage (An Unauthorized Musical Parody) and another guy who’s no longer proud of his Kennedy Center awards comes a new evening of murderous musical mayhem, right in time for Oscar Week. With music and lyrics by Jeff-nominated and Jeff-snubbed Preston Max Allen, book by Broadway Beat editor Edward Precht, music direction by Jeff Winner Evelyn Ryan, and a shimmering cast of stars, Amy Adams Wins An Oscar is a harrowing fantasia of love, loss, and the lengths a certain redhead will go to sabotage Isla Fisher’s career. Sonically somewhere between Hello, Dolly! and Heathers, this skewed love letter to Hollywood pulls dozens of familiar faces into the Academy Awards race of a lifetime, where the stakes are high, no one is safe, and we finally answer the age-old question: just what DOES it take to win an Oscar?
