Creative team
When the music of Céline Dion makes sweet Canadian love with the eleven-time Oscar®-winning blockbuster film Titanic, you get Titanique, off Broadway’s most award-winning splash hit that turns one of the greatest love stories of all time into a hysterical musical fantasia.
Co-written by Tye Blue, Marla Mindelle and Constantine Rousouli, Titanique celebrated its Off-Broadway premiere in June 2022 at Asylum Theater, starring the musical’s co-authors Mindelle and Rousouli as Céline Dion and Jack Dawson. After several sold-out extensions, the musical transferred to the Daryl Roth Theatre on November 20, 2022.
The authors are: Marla Mindelle, Constantine Rousouli & Tye Blue, the set is designed by Gabriel Hainer Evansohn & Grace Laubacher, costumes are designed by Alejo Vietti, the lighting designer is Paige Seber, the sound designer is Lawrence Schober, the casting director is Pearson Casting CDG, musical supervision, orchestration & arrangements are by Nicholas J Connell, choreography is by Ellenore Scott and Titanique is directed by the co-author Tye Blue (RuPaul’s Drag Race).
What’s the show about?
Want to find out what really happened to Jack and Rose on that fateful night? Just leave it to Céline Dion to enchant the audience with her totally wild take, recharting the course of Titanic’s beloved moments and characters with her iconic song catalogue. Sailing on fierce powerhouse voices in show-stopping performances of such hits as My Heart Will Go On, All by Myself and To Love you More – backed by a full live band – Titanique is a one-of-a-kind theatrical voyage bursting with nostalgia, heart and campy chaos.
