The quick demise of The Queen of Versailles has led to an unexpected Broadway transfer.
Titanique, the off-Broadway parody of Titanic featuring the songs of Céline Dion (also currently running in the West End), will begin a 16-week run at the St James Theatre on 26 March, with opening night set for 12 April.
Co-written by Marla Mindelle, Constantine Rousouli, and the show’s director Tye Blue, Titanique premiered off-Broadway in June 2022 at Asylum Theater.
The musical transferred to the Daryl Roth Theatre in November 2022, and won Lucille Lortel and Off-Broadway Alliance awards for Best New Musical. It ended its off-Broadway run earlier this year and has been seen around the world – it currently plays at the Criterion Theatre in London.
Mindelle, who originated the role of Céline Dion, will reprise her performance on Broadway; further casting has yet to be announced.
Joining Blue on the Broadway creative team are choreographer Ellenore Scott, music supervisor/arranger/orchestrator Nicholas James Connell, scenic designers Gabriel Hainer Evansohn and Grace Lauchbacher for Iron Bloom Creative Production, costume designer Alejo Vietti, lighting designer Paige Seber, sound designer Lawrence Schober, and hair and wig designer Charles G LaPointe.
Titanique is currently scheduled to close on Broadway on 12 July 2026, and continues to book in the West End.
