Death Becomes Her (Chicago) Tickets

Really fun with a cast to die for. Amazing sets and costumes. Hood scre, great book. Could use some trimming, but otherwise ready for Broadway.

Loved it, best show since Hamilton! Must see! Go now!!!

Not good. Very uneventful after the beginning. Avoid.

Act I better than Act II. Many great moments and some meh. Michelle Williams - meh

Costume changes, dancing, singing, fun dialog. Well done.

If you’re a fan of the film, you’re going to love this musical! So much fun, great costumes, amazing choreography, overall a terrific night at the theater.

The musical adaptation of the 1992 camp classic does exactly what it sets out to do. Make the audience laugh. The two leading ladies were so funny and their voices amazing. The real sniper of the show is Ernest though. He basically made this a three stooges sketch. The set designs and the costumes were spectacular. And the songs, for the most part, were very toe tapping and enjoyable. The main downsides were the casting of Michelle Williams. While she can sing through the rafters, an actor she is not. When placed along side of the three mains, she comes off wooden and boring. Maybe the casting of a drag queen would have brought the character more to life. In a world of heightened comedy and antics, she failed to deliver. Additionally, there were a few transitions that were rough and needed some work. But this is the preview and what the purpose of this is for. Finally, the last song, the finale, was severely lacking. It barely was a song, and then to have Viola run back out for one line felt like such a let down after a hilarious 2.5 hours. Perhaps a new song, or a more fleshed out ending would benefit the show. In total, this was a great adaptation and with some work, would be a perfect night at the theater.

This musical was so good! The show stays true to the original movie. The comedy is on point. The music is fantastic. So glad I went!

Such a genuinely fun and hilarious night out! The casting is spot on, the songs were wonderful, the quick changes and props were phenomenal! Get this Broadway, stat!

As a huge fan of the movie, I wasn’t so precious about it that I couldn’t entertain the thought of it becoming a musical. Thankfully, this team has created a riotously funny musical comedy that delivers (and then some) the goods. I liked it so much, in fact, that I went to see it again during my short stay in the city. The leads are terrific and the ensemble is gorgeous. As this is an out of town tryout, expect some material to be in flux and not everything to be razor sharp - but as someone who sees a ton of pre-Broadway shows (many in Chicago) this is by far one of the all-time strongest ones I’ve seen taking into account the quality and laughs. Don’t miss this one.
