Tammy Faye: A New Musical
From legendary songwriter Elton John, composer of The Lion King, Billy Elliot, and Aida, comes TAMMY FAYE, a new Broadway musical the New York Times calls “spectacularly entertaining.” Outrageously funny and deeply moving, TAMMY FAYE follows one woman’s journey from the early days of satellite TV through the tears, trials, and triumphs that made her an icon.
Wrapped in Elton John’s deliriously fun score, with lyrics by Scissor Sisters’ Jake Shears, book by Olivier Award-winning playwright James Graham, and directed by Olivier Award winner Rupert Goold, TAMMY FAYE shines a light on the generous soul behind the illustrious lashes. Two-time Olivier Award winner Katie Brayben reprises her celebrated performance as Tammy Faye Bakker, starring alongside two-time Tony Award® winner Christian Borle and two-time Tony Award winner Michael Cerveris.
