Time to Shed Some Tears!

Cry-Baby, the musical based on the popular film will begin its run at the Marquis Theatre on Broadway starting March 15.  The show is based on the story of “the baddest boy in town” falling for one of the good girls set in Baltimore in 1954.  The two actors in the leading roles are James Snyder and Tony Award winner Harriet Harris who both created their roles at the La Jolla Playhouse.  Officially the production will open to the public on April 24.

Some of the songs that are featured in this “tear-jerker” are: “One Tear,” “I’m Infected,” “Can I Kiss You?” and “I Did Something Wrong Once.”  Johnny Depp played the lead role of Wade “Cry-Baby” Walker in the 1990 film.  The plot has gathered the attentions of theatre going patrons around the globe and it will surely be a big hit on Broadway.  If you want to treat yourself and your family members to a show that will take you back a few decades and will leave you singing along to every ballad be sure to order your Cry-Baby tickets from Stubhub.com.
