Cruel Intentions: The Musical celebrates its official opening at (le) Poisson Rouge December 11. A hybrid of a rock concert mixed with a musical, the show is back Off-Broadway following a sold-out, pop-up run at the venue earlier this year.
Originally scheduled to run through January 29, 2018, the production announced December 11 that it has extended through February 19. Performances began November 17.
Cruel Intentions: The Musical is adapted from Roger Kumble’s cult ‘90s film, and features many of the songs that made the movie so iconic, including The Verve’s “Bitter Sweet Symphony,” Christina Aguilera’s “Genie in a Bottle,” and Placebo's “Every You Every Me.”
The show is created by Jordan Ross, Lindsey Rosin, and Kumble and features immersive stage direction by Rosin, choreography by Jennifer Weber, and music direction and arrangements by Zach Spound.
The cast is made up of Lauren Zakrin as Kathryn, Carrie St. Louis as as Annette, Constantine Rousouli as Sebastian, Jessie Shelton as Cecile, Alex Boniello as Blaine, Brian Muller as Greg, Matthew Griffin as Ronald, and Patricia Richardson as Mrs. Caldwell.
