Broadway Does Punk, the live music project created by musician and TikTok creator Matt Copley, will make its live debut at Abrons Arts Center’s Playhouse Theater with three performances October 2-3.

Broadway Does Punk began as a series of online videos transforming songs from musicals including Wicked, Hamilton, Six, and The Phantom of the Opera into high-energy pop-punk and rock anthems. Copley’s interpretations have generated more than 16 million Spotify streams.

Copley will be joined by special guests to be announced in the coming months.
