About

Murder Ballad: A New Musical
 
“Grab a beer, get a table and make like you’re at a rock concert!” –Time Out New York
 
Recipient of five Lucille Lortel nominations, including Best Musical!
 
A love triangle gone wrong, MURDER BALLAD centers on Sara, an Upper West Sider who seems to have it all, but whose downtown past lingers enticingly and dangerously in front of her. This sexy, explosive new musical explores the complications of love, the compromises we make, and the betrayals that can ultimately undo us. 
 
MURDER BALLAD will play the Union Square Theatre for nine weeks only, transferring from its acclaimed sold-out engagement at Manhattan Theatre Club.

    Best musical since Rent!

    by DrJenNYC on 7/24/13Union Square Theatre - New York

    Undoubtedly the best musical since Rent. Caissie Levy and Will Swenson are amazing together. It is hard to keep your eyes off either one of them. The story line is incredible, but the music is even better. I cannot stop listening to the soundtrack. I only wish it were staying open longer!

    Great Talent and unusual staging

    by theatrerocks on 7/23/13Union Square Theatre - New York

    Fantastic music and great voices and acting performances. I really did not like the staging with seating on stage around tables, blocking our view. Those on stage had to swivel around to view actors, and only those sitting towards the back of the seating rows actually could view all the actors at any one time.

    Hot and Steamy

    by DMc91423 on 7/21/13Union Square Theatre - New York

    In a very interestingly built out space, the show romped and unfolded amongst the audience, dragging us into the story with every song. The cast was incredibly evenly matches and worked well as an ensemble...essential to pull this concept off. The story and music were very intense and held interest, even with some of the lesser numbers. The theater was hot, which made it uncomfortable for the audience and decidedly for the hardworking band and cast. To be fair it WAS the hottest week of the year outside. All in all, I enjoyed the show and would love to see anything else this talented cast and/or composer does in the future.

    Intense!

    by bwaybabie on 7/18/13Union Square Theatre - New York

    I loved it!

    by BearBear223 on 7/17/13Union Square Theatre - New York

    So impressed with the talent in this show. It's amazing that only 4 actors can hold the show the way they do for as long as they do. Also the lack of staging and scenery goes amazingly unmissed. I would definitely recommend it to a friend! Great music, great acting and choreography.

    murder ballad was fun!

    by docdavegott on 7/16/13Union Square Theatre - New York

    My wife and I both enjoyed this. I was a little concerned about the racy reviews, but that was not the case. It was fun and unusual. The whole theatre set as a bar was unique. Was it awesome...no. But the actors and actresses were great, and like I said the experience was unique and fun.

    Great show!

    by lotsoftickets on 7/15/13Union Square Theatre - New York

    Loved the show and the actors. My only disappointment is that Will Swenson was out. Going back again this weekend with the hope that Will is back and in great form. Had Will been in the show I would probably have given a 5 star rating.
