Detroit's favorite holiday laughs are back!
NOVEMBER 24 - DECEMBER 31
In 2007, the Gem Theatre hosted a production of A Forbidden Broadway Christmas that became one of the Gem Theatre's record-breaking christmas shows! We're excited to announce that the fabulous cast that made that production such a great hit is back and ready to do it again with classic Forbidden Broadway and Christmas numbers and some Forbbiden Broadway spoofs that have never been done in Detroit.
Based on the popular Forbidden Broadway production, Forbidden Christmas includes spoofs of Broadway's greatest shows & performers. From The Phantom of the Opera to The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, no show is immune from the comedic parody of the Forbidden company! For the holidays, Forbidden Christmas adds spoofs of celebrities and holiday favorites such as Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Cher, Britney Spears, and more - all singing your favorite holiday numbers. And don't worry - you don't have to be a Broadway aficionado to get the jokes. The show is top-notch quality fun, even if you don't know the tunes!
