Britney Spears musical Once Upon a One More Time to open on Broadway

A new jukebox musical based on the songs of Britney Spears has announced its Broadway opening!

The Once Upon a One More Time musical offers up a spin on the characters from Brothers Grimm’s fairytales.

Following a try out in Washington in 2021, the show will begin previews on 13 May 2023 at the Marquis Theatre ahead of an official opening night on 22 June 2023.

Every fortnight, when our storybook heroines gather for book club, they always discuss the same book, Grimm’s Fairy Tales — because as far as they know, it’s the only book that’s ever been written.

That’s when a rogue fairy godmother drops The Feminine Mystique into their corseted laps. From now on, ‘happily ever after’ will never be the same. It’s the ultimate revisionist fairy tale that’ll make you feel stronger than yesterday.

The musical will feature Britney Spears’ hit songs including “Stronger”, “Oops I Did It Again”, “Lucky”, “Circus” and “Toxic”.

Casting for the Broadway run is to be announced.

Keone and Mari Madrid direct and choreograph with creative consultancy by David Leveaux, costume and hair design by Loren Elstein, scenic design by Anna Fleischle, lighting design by Kenneth Posner, sound design by Andrew Keister, production design by Sven Ortel, wig design by Ashley Rae Callahan and casting by Hardt Casting.
