Equality rang through the United States this morning with the Supreme Court's historic decision - and Broadway's IT SHOULDA BEEN YOU getting in on the celebration.

The musical will offer buy-one, get-one-free tickets for spouses (even those who haven't been able to make it legal just yet,) reps announced today. Valid for only 72 hours for performances in July, the offer will end on Monday, June 29, 2015 at 12 pm. Those interested can use the code MEQ1 on Ticketmaster.com, by calling 877-250-2929, or making the trek in person to the Brooks Atkinson Theatre.

Given its subject matter, IT SHOULDA BEEN YOU has appropriately made a name for itself in recent months by celebrating marriage equality, welcoming couples to propose or wed on stage.

Officially, "It Shoulda Been You is a culture clash for the ages when two families from wildly different backgrounds come together to celebrate a wedding. As if the union wasn't complicated enough, the bride's ex-boyfriend arrives, bringing the wedding to a screeching halt and throwing both families into hysterical chaos. Plots are hatched, promises broken, secrets exposed - and the bride's resourceful sister is left to turn an unmitigated disaster into happily ever after. It Shoulda Been You puts a refreshingly modern spin on the traditional wedding comedy, proving that when it comes to wedding day insanity, it's all relative."

Directed by David Hyde Pierce, the new Broadway musical features an original book & lyrics by Brian Hargrove and music by Barbara Anselmi, and boasts all star cast, including Tyne Daly, Harriet Harris, Sierra Boggess, David Burtka, Lisa Howard, Edward Hibbert, Tony Award-nominee Montego Glover, Josh Grisetti, Adam Heller, Michael X. Martin, Anne L. Nathan, Nick Spangler and Chip Zien.

IT SHOULDA BEEN YOU's creative team features work by Josh Rhodes (Choreography) Anna Louizos (Set Design), William Ivey Long (Costume Design), Ken Billington (Lighting Design), and Nevin Steinberg (Sound Design), with additional lyrics by Jill Abramovitz, Carla Rose Fisher, Michael Cooper, Ernie Lijoi and Will Randall.
