Bullets Over Broadway

Bullets Over Broadway at St James Theater

Why see Bullets Over Broadway?

Bullets Over Broadway is a six-time Tony nominated musical production of Woody Allen's iconic film of the same name. It tells the darkly comic story of an aspiring playwright who is forced to cast the talentless girlfriend of a local mobster in order to have see his play ever reach the stage.

The musical stars Zach Braff (of the hit TV show Scrubs) in his Broadway debut, alongside Three-time Tony-nominee Marin Mazzie, Vincent Pastore (The Sopranos) and Brooks Ashmanskas. The musical will be directed by five time Tony Award winning director and choreographer Susan Stroman.
