Beautiful Cast Recording on vinyl

The cast recording of Beautiful — The Carole King Musical is the perfect marriage of King's heartfelt songs and amazing Broadway vocals. If that weren't enough, the recording is available as a 2-Disc Limited Edition Vinyl Album. Pop that baby on your vintage record player and it'll be like the '70s are alive again.


Aladdin Cast Recording

This recording of Aladdin features all your favorite songs from the animated movie in addition to new music written by Tony and Academy Award winner Alan Menken with lyrics by the legendary Howard Ashman. Give it to the Disney fan in your life to introduce them to "A Whole New World" of Broadway musicals.


The Book of Mormon Unisex Tie Tee

This Book of Mormon cotton tee will appeal to just about everyone on your shopping list. Comedy fans will appreciate that the show was written by South Park co-creator Trey Parker. Broadway nerds will love that Mormon is a multi-Tony Award-winning musical. And the perpetually underdressed will appreciate that the tie is built right in.


A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder Cast Recording

The original Broadway cast recording of Tony-winning musical A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder includes a 40-page booklet with a synopsis and complete lyrics. That's good, because as soon as your giftee gets a listen, they're sure to want to learn the whole score.


Youth Mary Poppins Umbrella

For the magical tot in your life, what better gift than a miniature version of Mary Poppin's umbrella? Not only is this present practical, it also has potential to inspire the imagination — just ask the tap-dancing statuary. Keep in mind that children should always be supervised when using this item: Improper use can result in flights of flying.


Cinderella Cast Recording

"It's Possible" that there's someone on your Christmas list who isn't a Cinderella fan, but it's certainly not likely. The classic Rogers & Hammerstein score is a crowd pleaser, making this cast album a great option for pretty much anyone. There's even a signed version, for that family member who just doesn't think a gift's a gift unless it's a collector's item.


Aladdin Beach Towel

Most likely, someone on your Christmas list has plans to spend the new year in an exciting tropical locale. Make their trip even more special with this Aladdin flying-carpet beach towel. As with the Mary Poppins umbrella, this gift should only be used with caution. No one wants to fall asleep on the beach in Aruba but wake up in the middle of the Arabian Desert.


Murder for Two Cast Recording

For your most musical-theater obsessed friends, a single cast album won't be enough. What could better as a two-recording set than off-Broadway hit Murder for Two paired with A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder? After all, nothing says Christmas like double homicide.


Mary Testa & Michael Starobin "Have Faith"

What better time than the holiday season to consider matters of faith? Wicked's Mary Testa has joined forces with Tony Award-winning orchestrator Michael Starobin to create Have Faith — a contemporary concept album perfect for your more contemplative friends.


TheaterMania Gold Club

TheaterMania just released an all-new Gold Club! For just $99 a year, members can see as many shows as they can squeeze in — all complimentary or discounted. If you know someone who loves theater (and we know you wouldn't be here if you didn't), they'll love TheaterMania's Gold Club.


The Bridges of Madison County Cast Recording

Nothing says romance like infidelity and a Tony-winning score. The cast recording from Jason Robert Brown's Tony-winning but short-lived The Bridges of Madison County is the perfect gift for that special someone (or other someone) in your life.


Cabaret Gin Glass

"Don't Tell Mama" that you're getting your bohemian younger sister this Cabaret gin tumbler for Christmas. But Little Sally will definitely love it. She'll finally be able to make her prairie oysters in something other than that old Starbucks cup.


Beautiful Vocal Selections/Sheet Music

Any Broadway-obsessed singer-songwriter would be delighted to receive the vocal selections/sheet music from the Tony-winning musical Beautiful. Not only will Carol King's uplifting story inspire your friend or family member to pursue their dream, he'll be able to exercise his vocal and piano chops in the process.


Alan Cumming Memoir Not My Father's Son

If you're feeling really generous, Alan Cumming's memoir Not My Father's Son would be the perfect companion gift for the Cabaret tumbler. The recipient of this fantastic pairing will know you value the copious quality time they spend alone with a novel and a glass of gin.


Hedwig and the Angry Inch Cast Recording

The Hedwig and the Angry Inch cast album features not only the overwhelming vocals of Tony winner Lena Hall but also Neil Patrick Harris' rocking renditions of the show's cult-classic songs. You no doubt have a Hedwig fan in your life, and if not, this album makes a great gift for your cousin the philosophy major, because the ballad "The Origin of Love" comes straight out of Plato.
