The world premiere of Titanique, the irresistibly funny and irreverent new musical send-up of the blockbuster film Titanic, featuring the songs of pop icon Céline Dion, has been extended. Due to ticket demand, the limited Off-Broadway engagement at The Asylum Theatre (307 W 26th St.) will now play through Sunday, November 6, 2022. Tickets are available at www.titaniquemusical.com.
When the music of Céline Dion makes sweet Canadian love with the eleven-time Oscar-winning film Titanic, you get Titanique, a musical celebration that turns one of the greatest love stories of all time into a hysterical and joyful slay-fest. Want to find out what really happened to Jack and Rose on that fateful night? Just leave it to Céline Dion to casually hijack a Titanic Museum tour and enchant the audience with her totally wild take, recharting the course of Titanic's beloved moments and characters with her iconic song catalog. A one-of-a-kind musical voyage bursting with nostalgia, hilarity, and heart, Titanique features powerhouse voices in show-stopping performances of such hits as "My Heart Will Go On," "All by Myself", and "To Love You More," backed by the unparalleled energy of a full live band.
"The news has been rough, this summer has been hot...and clearly, escaping with Celine Dion & the brilliant company of Titanique to the basement of a Gristedes is the salve folks need right now," says producer Eva Price. "It's been a show of dreams for all of us, and we're so thrilled it'll remain buoyant for six more weeks at the Asylum!"
The cast is led by co-authors Marla Mindelle (Sister Act, Netflix's "Special") as Céline Dion and Constantine Rousouli (Cruel Intentions, "Charmed") as Jack; alongside Frankie Grande (Mamma Mia, Rock of Ages) as Victor Garber, Kathy Deitch (Footloose, Wicked) as Molly Brown, Ryan Duncan (Getting' the Band Back Together, Shrek) as Ruth, Alex Ellis (Catch Me If You Can, Thoroughly Modern Millie) as Rose, John Riddle (The Phantom of the Opera, Frozen) as Cal through August 23, and Jaye Alexander as The Iceberg.
