Fasten your seatbelts for APPLAUSE, Tony Award-winning musical inspired by the classic film All About Eve and the original story by Mary Orr. This rarely seen gem pulls back the curtain on Broadway life, centering on the battle of wits and ambition between stage legend Margo Channing and her cunning understudy, Eve Harrington.

In celebration of the life and legacy of the late Charles Strouse, we’re proud to present this high-energy homage to theatre itself—featuring his vibrant 1970s score, including the hits “Applause,” “But Alive,” and “Welcome to the Theater.” With lyrics by Lee Adams and a book by Broadway legends Betty Comden and Adolph Green, APPLAUSE is packed with sass, wit, and heart, brought to life with MTG’s signature flair for rediscovering Broadway’s hidden treasures.

Tonight’s orchestra performance will be enhanced by the generosity of the David Lee Foundation.
