About

FRIENDS! The Musical Parody is the comedic musical that lovingly pokes fun at TV's Friends, celebrating the adventures of your favorite group of 20-something friends as they navigate the pitfalls of work, life, and love in 1990s Manhattan.

It's a typical day at New York's only coffee shop, Central Perk, until an unexpected runaway bride enters the picture and kicks the whole gang out of second gear! The new musical recreates our favorite moments from all 10 years of Friends through an uncensored, fast-paced, music filled romp. Recommended for mature audiences.

    Nailed it!

    by Hoosiermomma on 3/2/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    Going in I thought it was gonna be really good or really bad. They nailed it! It was so funny I missed some jokes as I was still laughing from the previous one. The actors were spot on...mannerisms and all. They even hit on some of the things we were thinking all along...like nobody likes Ross! Good job!

    Extremely mediocre

    by M. on 3/2/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    The cast tried their best with this but the book and score were just rough. I wasn’t exactly bored, but was definitely happy when it wasn’t over.

    A Must See

    by J.Saffa on 3/1/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    Loved this show! It was the perfect length and kept me engaged the entire time. The actors were spot on and they touched on all of the highlights of Friends. They stayed true to the show, while giving it their own twist. I had no idea what to expect, but was not disappointed. My only complaint is I was freezing the entire time. Make sure you bring your coat!

    Great fun for a true fan

    by Nicki on 2/27/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    This show was full of jokes not only from the original series, but towards its actors as well. I would recommend it to any true Friends fan who knows the show inside and out and can appreciate a parody.

    One of my top 5 ever

    by Pianoprincess on 2/26/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    I am a music teacher and have attended musicals since I was a kid. I haven’t laughed like I did at the friends show in a long time. Everyone did an A+ job, especially Chandler playing everyone literally who ever came on the show as a guest. The music was great and so funny! Highly recommended and thanks for a great experience !

    A great night out

    by c. on 2/25/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    This was so much fun! I had pretty low expectations but was pleasantly surprised by how much of ten-years of show they were able to fit into the musical parody. The cast was great and seemed to really enjoy what they were doing. If you loved Friends this is a must-see.

    Hilarious stroll down memory lane

    by Kristin F on 2/23/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    Not only does this show seamlessly weave the entire Friends show into a nice,neat package but it was also incredibly witty! The actors were great but Rachel was SPOT ON! The mannerisms, voice, and look made us doing a double take. Chandler was incredibly versatile as well!

    Missed the Mark

    by J. on 2/23/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    The Friends musical parody had so much potential but unfortunately missed the mark. Some actors nailed their characters' mannerisms while others were lacking. The dialogue and jokes felt forced at times. I imagine it's hard to cram so many great jokes into one parody but I left unimpressed. Could there BE any more jokes included??

    Nailed It

    by MO&GO on 2/22/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    They managed to cover almost everything in a 10-year period. Janice was the best, especially in the second act. All-in-all one fun night.

    Not good

    by N. on 2/20/19Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    I’m not sure who gave this 4 and 5 star reviews...I’m being kind by giving 2. The actors were good, especially Rachel but the jokes were obnoxious and crude and the whole thing was just painful to watch.
