Broadway's Next H!T Musical Opens Exciting 2012-2013 Season at Governors State University Center for Performing Arts

Governors State University Center for Performing Arts opens its 2012-2013 season with "Broadway's Next H!T Musical"

Governors State University Center for Performing Arts opens its 2012-2013 season with “Broadway’s Next H!T Musical,” an award-winning comic evening of music, humor, and laughter. Direct from smash-hit engagements in New York and several theater festivals, “Broadway's Next H!T Musical” comes to GSU Center for one performance only on Friday, September 21, at 8 p.m.

The hysterical “Broadway’s Next H!T Musical” is the only unscripted theatrical
awards show. Master improvisers gather made-up, hit song suggestions from the
audience and create a musical comedy on the spot. The audience votes for their
favorite song and watches as the cast turns it into a full blown improvised
musical - complete with memorable characters, witty dialogue, and plot twists.

Every song is fresh. Every scene is new. Every night is different. It’s all
improvised and it’s all funny. TheaterWeek hailed the show as
“brilliant” and the New York Post called “Broadway’s Next H!T Musical”
“remarkable.” Time Out New York announced, “At last! A musical of, for, and by
the people…That’s entertainment!” and the New York Times called the show
“hilarious.”
