I Wish My Life Were Like A Musical

Delighted to share that our Off-Broadway production has received a Drama Desk Award nomination. Thanks to our brilliant cast, creative team, and everyone at SoHo Playhouse who helped bring the show to life in NY. Grateful for this recognition and all who made the run so special.

Ten days after the end of our off-Broadway run, we’re still feeling incredibly grateful to the critics who championed the show. 🎭

One week since our final bow at the @sohoplayhouse. 🎭 Thank you to our brilliant cast, creative team, and audiences for making our off-Broadway run such a joy - from awful auditions to standing ovations. Because sometimes… life really is like a musical.

High notes. High kicks. Higher drama. Award-winning musical comedy exposing EVERYTHING about life in musical theatre. Never seen it? Now’s your moment. Seen it? Come relive the chaos. NYC theatre lovers - tag your people 👇 5pm & 7pm. Then we’re out. 💥

High kicks. Dressing room drama. Final bows. 🎭 Only 3 performances left at @sohoplayhouse - one today, two tomorrow. The glitter, the graft and the glorious chaos are nearly at their last note. #IWishMyLifeWereLikeAMusical #TheatreTwitter #FinalCurtain
