WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Infectious melodies, razor-sharp lyrics, biting satire and more unpredictability than a Courtney Love tweet make NEWSical a laugh-filled, high octane musical revue of all the most talked-about headlines of the day. Satirical spoofs of the most up-to-the-minute newsmakers and celebrities are added on a regular basis making NEWSical an ever-evolving mockery of all the news that's fit to print!
From Occupy Wall Street to the 2012 Presidential Election and the national fight for marriage equality to the Mayan calendar, Ashton and Demi and the end of soaps, all the biggest stories of the year in pop culture and politics are given composer-lyricist Rick Crom's signature skewering in a hilarious 90-minute revue the Associated Press calls "The Daily Show set to music!"

The smart and spiffy new edition of NEWSical the Musical, now at The Kirk Theatre, makes it abundantly clear that the heir to the musical comedy revue format that was owned for so long by Forbidden Broadway has finally been found. Directed at a wonderfully furious pace by the masterful Mark Waldrop, and with music, lyrics, and sketches by the witty Rick Crom, the show will have audiences laughing from start to finish.
Not only are NEWSical's comic lyrics in the same rarified league as those by Gerard Alessandrini of Forbidden Broadway fame, the producers of this show have wisely cast their revue almost exclusively with standout veterans of their legendary predecessor.
Of course, the two r[...]
