About

“The best show in town!” shouts NPR.

 

Hailed by Time Magazine as “Musical Theatre Gold!”, BULLETS OVER BROADWAY is the hilarious musical comedy about the making of a Broadway show.

 

Written by Woody Allen, with original direction and choreography by Susan Stroman and based upon the screenplay of the acclaimed film by Woody Allen and Douglas McGrath, BULLETS OVER BROADWAY is the story of a young playwright who, in desperate need of financial backing for his next show, accepts an offer he can’t refuse from a mobster looking to please his showgirl girlfriend.

 

Don’t miss what the New Yorker exclaims as “a Fun Machine from Start to Finish!” Loaded with big laughs, colorful characters, and the songs that made the '20s roar, Bullets Over Broadway is bringing musical comedy back with a bang.

    Bullets way over broadway!!!!!

    by Poorhows on 2/1/16Fox Performing Arts Center - Riverside

    After reading the critics reviews I went there expecting something on the verge of,mediocre. To me and my wife's surprise, albeit 10 minutes into the play, it really took off. The,troupe had just played the Pantages for quite a few performances so I thought they'd be sort of like, let's get this over. It turns out that Bullets over Broadway with that troupe is a play I could see over and over. Thanks to Fox Theater in Riverside and to Bullets over Broadway for a memorable night.

    Bullets Over Broadway Sparkles

    by silverstar10 on 2/1/16Fox Performing Arts Center - Riverside

    Fabulous dancers and choreography backs up stunning vocals. The finale contained feature dance numbers but the music to this piece was not up to the magic of the rest of the reworked and re-interpreted period songs.

    Bullets over Broadway is shooting blanks

    by kcufbmud on 1/29/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    Broadway is much more than 3000 miles away from this performance. The cast needs refresher training in enunciation and diction. Mush mouth prevails, song lyrics are undecipherable, and all-in-all it's an amateurish production of a so-so musical. Bullets only lasted about 5 months on Broadway and now I know why. This cast and performance don't help the cause.

    Fun Show

    by Musicalluv on 1/27/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    I did not have high expectations for "Bullets Over Broadway" but it proved me wrong and more than exceeded my expectations! Thank you Pantages Theater for bringing such a funny, excellent show to your venue!! After seeing the awful If/Then last month, this was a pleasant surprise!

    Bullets Over Broadway was amazing!

    by chawaii on 1/27/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    This fast-paced musical was entertaining from start to finish. The cast, set, costumes were perfect. It was the best musical I've seen in years. Loved it!

    B.O.B.

    by Tirefryin on 1/26/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    Diffidently worth seeing. The dancing was excellent and so was the singing. My only real gripe was the use of profanity. (F-word & God D*%#) not good taste for a good play or needed. Play still doesn't hold-up to the best I've seen (The Producers)

    Unbelievably bad

    by TreasurerFox on 1/25/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    The review title kind of sums it up. Dreadful acting, songs dumped into an unfunny script with no rhyme or reason, and some of the clumsiest staging I have ever seen.

    Blanks Over Broadway

    by Bastard1965 on 1/25/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    So...it wasn't THE PRODUCERS. It wasn't CRAZY FOR YOU. AND, it WASN'T UNION. I enjoyed the movie better and felt the production values were lackluster and the writing was too blue. The cast was fine although I never felt as if I was seeing a "star" or a "star to be".

    Dancing was outstanding

    by Juliez on 1/25/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    I really enjoyed the music, songs and cinematography from this musical. The dance routines by the men really were great. There was a lot of funny lines to make the audience laugh too. The costumes were fantastic and everyone looked good. The only complaint was it was 2.5 hours long and I was ready to leave after 2 hours. It dragged on towards the end.

    What a bore and a waste of 2 + hours and $

    by Sidz on 1/25/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    Birthday ruined. Finance and I hated this.It was supposed to be a special night for her birthday and it was the biggest disappointed either one of us have had at the theatre. The show is far too long, the voice of the lead female was piercing, the props were weak, and the overall story line was S L O W as molasses.

    Hilarious Fun and Great Music!

    by HollywoodWriter on 1/24/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    Woody Allen's Bullets Over Broadway is a lot of musical fun, even tho it's seriously flawed in the second act. The first act is a perfectly-balanced windup of classic Broadway music, comedy, and stagecraft. The story is perfect. The cast is outstanding, good voices and excellent comic timing. And the climactic first-act number "Tain't Nobody's Bizness" (gangsters tap dancing) is easily the spine-tingling high point of the show. The second act is an unfortunate mechanical unwinding of the story, not outright bad, but just flawed structurally and uninspired. It's still kinda funny, running on the inspired glow from the first act. The show ends with the entire cast singing "Yes, We Have No Bananas". Totally unmotivated. A complete non-sequitur. But really, it doesn't matter. The first act is easily worth the price of admission. I went with a date, and we had an excellent time. I recommend this show.

    AMAZING AND ENRAPTURING PERFORMANCES!

    by Musicallover39 on 1/23/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    Wow, what can I say! Live theater has done it again! Completely enraptured and enthralled me. What stood out to me the most about Bullets Over Broadway was the 1920's Flapper theme, with cute dance numbers and exciting story lines. However, my favorite part of the show were the performances by Emma Stratton and Bradley Allan Zarr. Absolutely incredible, that natural, magical sparkle in their eyes and completely embodying their characters- they were the show stoppers of the show!

    Rent the movie

    by AML20 on 1/23/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    The story is terrific - and if one wanted to make the movie (which is excellent) into a musical they should have created music for it. Instead they put music in that doesn't work with the story. This might have been a better Play with music.

    "Bullets" was Dynamite!

    by marcellina on 1/23/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    We had a wonderful time! The singing and dancing was terrific and the book was just as delightful as I remembered it being in the original film. Truly enjoyable time in the theater and we are so glad we went.
