WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Nominated for the Tony Awards for Best Book and Best Leading Actress (Sherie Rene Scott) in a Musical!
"ONE OF THE MOST EXTRAVEGANTLY ENTERTAINING NEW MUSICALS OF THE YEAR!" - The New York Times
Tony Award® nominee Sherie Rene Scott has taken on some of Broadway's most challenging roles, including an evil sea witch (The Little Mermaid), a pampered princess (Aida) and a dirty, rotten scoundrel (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels). Now this leading lady is playing her most daunting part yet: herself. Well, kinda.
Everyday Rapture tells the true-ish story of a young woman's journey from Mennonite to Manhattanite and from bedroom lip-syncher to Broadway semi-star! Featuring songs by David Byrne, Elton John, Mister Rogers, The Supremes, Tom Waits, U2 and Judy Garland, Everyday Rapture is an uplifting and uproarious new musical that asks, is it better to worship...or BE worshiped?

Everday Rapture
it was the worst play that Roundabout put on. Maybe good for summer stock, , one stage, no costumes, two back up singers, similar to rap stars.,but not Broadway. It was one long monologue. Not an original song, but all that had been popular before. Some parts were offensive. I could not wait for it to end.

[Editor's Note: The following is an updated version of TheaterMania's previously published review of Everyday Rapture.]
Sherie Rene Scott describes herself as a "semi-star" in her autobiographically-based musical, Everyday Rapture, now being presented on Broadway by the Roundabout Theatre Company at the American Airlines Theatre. But while Scott may not be as well known as the numerous celebrities who have trod the boards this season, she shines just as bright (and in some cases brighter) in this vibrant production that showcases her ample talents.
The piece was seen last year at Second Stage Theatre, following previous incarnations at the Zipper Theater and as a one-night benefit concert[...]
