The Chicago bow of the Off-Broadway hit Titanìque begins performances at Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place via Broadway in Chicago and Porchlight Music Theatre (in association with Eva Price) March 25. The eight-week limited engagement is currently scheduled through May 18.
Clare Kennedy McLaughlin leads the company as Céline Dion, with Adam Fane as Jack, Maya Rowe as Rose, Jackson Evans as Victor Garber, Rob Lindley as Ruth, Adrian Aguilar as Cal, Abby C. Smith as Molly Brown, and Lorenzo Shawn Parnell as The Seaman and Iceberg. The cast also includes background singers Eric Lewis, Caroline Lyell, and Elaine Watson; and understudies Jordan Douglas Ellis and Kaitlin Feely.
The musical, currently continuing Off-Broadway at the Daryl Roth Theatre, parodies the Oscar-winning film Titanic,
with Céline Dion herself commandeering a tour at the Titanic Museum to
retell the story of the fateful voyage to a soundtrack of her greatest
hits, including "All By Myself," "To Love You More," and, of course, "My
Heart Will Go On."
The work is written by Marla Mindelle and Constantine Rousouli. Since premiering in Los Angeles in 2017 and Off-Broadway in 2022, the musical has begun a worldwide roll-out, with stagings in Australia, Canada, London, and more.
The musical's co-creator and Off-Broadway director Tye Blue stages the Chicago production, joined by choreographer Kasey
Alfonso and music director Michael McBride.
