FRIENDS! THE MUSICAL PARODY Will Be 'There For You' Into the New Year Off-Broadway

Ross, Rachel, Chandler, Monica, Joey, Phoebe and Gunther will continue to be there for you into the New Year, as Lynn Shore Entertainment, Theater Mogul and McSmith Family Entertainment announced today a new block of tickets is now on sale for FRIENDS! The Musical Parody, the unauthorized parody of the hit TV show by the creators of Bayside! The Saved by the Bell Musical and 90210! The Musical.

Performances began on Friday, October 13, 2017 at St. Luke's Theatre (308 West 46th Street - between 8th & 9th Avenues) and the show officially opened on November 2. Originally announced as a limited engagement through December 31, 2017, performances will resume on Wednesday, January 3 and continue through March 31, 2018.

"The response to the show has been incredible," says producer Lynn Shore. "People have been coming back two and three times! We are thrilled to continue into the new year so that even more people can share the experience."

FRIENDS! The Musical Parody is the hilarious new musical that lovingly lampoons TV's Friends! You'll laugh! You'll cry! You'll Unagi! Friends! The Musical Parody celebrates and pokes fun at the wacky misadventures of a group of 20-something pals as they navigate the pitfalls of work, life and love in 1990s Manhattan. It's a seemingly typical day at New York's only coffee shop, Central Perk, until an unexpected runaway bride with beautiful hair enters the picture and kicks the whole gang out of second gear. Get ready to PIVOT to St Luke's Theatre!

Created by Bob and Tobly McSmith, the duo that created five critically acclaimed musical parodies including Bayside! The Saved by the Bell Musical (NY Times Critics' Pick), 90210! The Musical, Full House! The Musical starring Perez Hilton, Showgirls! The Musical, and Katdashians! The Musical!
