"Much has been written over the last several years about the musical genius of Lin-Manuel Miranda, whose musical Hamilton has taken the world by storm...Gerard Alessandrini is another musical genius, whose series of Forbidden Broadway productions for over three decades has continually satirized and spoofed the constantly changing landscape of the Broadway musical. So it seemed only natural that a show as successful as Hamilton would catch the attention of Alessandrini. While each of his editions of Forbidden Broadway featured parodies of more than a dozen shows, I believe his Spamilton: An American Parody is the first to focus mostly on one musical. After running Off-Broadway for two years and spawning productions in London, Los Angeles and Chicago, the national tour of the show kicked off last December and has arrived in Phoenix for a two-month run with an exceptional cast who deliver 80 minutes of hilarious musical satire...

"...a rush of songs that first chronicle (i.e., tease at) Miranda's aspirations to transcend his success with IN THE HEIGHTS and to transform theatre (I'm Not Gonna Let Broadway Rot, presuming righteously that the Great White Way needed a revolution)....an exhilarating demonstration of exceptional talent and remarkable creativity and a steady cannonade of laughs." - Herbert Paine, Broadway World (click here to read the complete review)
