‘Titanique The Musical’Β celebrated its upcoming opening night with a press launch at The Frying Pan in New York City on June 7.
Titanique The MusicalΒ is a hilarious retelling ofΒ TitanicΒ from the perspective of CΓ©line Dion. Complete withΒ CΓ©line Dion’s music, the inventive and fun musical stars Marla Mindelle as CΓ©line, Constantine Rousouli as Jack, Frankie Grande as Victor Garber,Β Kathy DeitchΒ as Molly Brown,Β Ryan DuncanΒ as Ruth,Β Alex EllisΒ as Rose,Β John RiddleΒ as Cal,Β Jaye AlexanderΒ as The Iceberg, andΒ Courtney Bassett, Donnie HammondΒ andΒ Dimitri Moise.
Co-created by Tye Blue, Rousouli, andΒ Mindelle, the musical is 90 minutes of fun and is the perfect entertainment escape.
“You’ve got to make people laugh,” Blue said of his inspiration to begin working onΒ TitaniqueΒ five years ago. “You’ve got to make yourself laugh. If you’re feeling like this, you’ve got to get back out there and make sure people are laughing and feeling better about being a human being on this planet. So Constantine and Marla and I started writing.”
“I left the concert presentation ofΒ TitaniqueΒ in Los Angeles in 2018 and said ‘I have to produce this, I must produce this,'” Producer Eva Price shared.
Now, after a long road of delays due to the pandemic and theater shutdowns,Β TitaniqueΒ is ready to set sail. Titanique The MusicalΒ opens June 23 at The Asylum Theatre and performances will run through September.
The Knockturnal got the chance to chat with some of the cast and creative team of Titanique.Β
