The Serious Theatre Collective, winner of the 2012 FringeNYC Overall Excellence Award: Best Ensemble, is proud to present the world premiere of The Magic Jukebox.
Opening Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from today, November 6th - 22nd, in partnership with the South Street Seaport and the Howard Hughes Corporation, this can't miss evening of musical sketch comedy will premiere at the first ever pop-up theater in Cannon's Walk located on 206 Front Street at the South Street Seaport.
Tickets are $18, sold in cash at the door and online att hemagicjukebox.brownpapertickets.com.
Written collaboratively by the Serious Theatre Collective, The Magic Jukebox brings audiences the uncontained joy of musical theater with the packed laughs of sketch comedy. What happens when aliens invade Earth and the only way to defeat them is to sing a Broadway power ballad? How does an ex-con avoid going crazy when his dark inner monologue is sung by a barbershop quartet? Or when an obsessive music nerd sells his soul for a jukebox that can play literally any song? (Want to hear the song from Kanye West's dream last night? Done.)
Join the Serious Theatre Collective for an evening of our most unique, entertaining, and hilarious new work underscored by original music played by our live band. Featuring a wide variety of musical styles and genres, from R&B to hair metal to Barbershop Quartets, The Magic Jukebox will delight audiences from theater newcomers to veteran Broadway addicts.
The show is runs approximately 80 minutes and contains 18 original scenes, complimented by custom artist-created set items, and accompanied by a live band.
The Serious Theatre Collective is a group of playwrights, actors, and artists who strive to make original, high-quality, affordable original theater that is accessible, remarkably entertaining, surprising and fun.
