 It's 1954 and the bluebloods of Baltimore are facing an atomic-sized threat in hip-swiveling jeans. From the delightfully demented mind of John Waters and the writers of Hairspray comes the story of a guitar-playing rebel and the good girl who dares to cross to his side of the tracks. What starts as an innocent romance balloons like a mushroom cloud...as the squares use every weapon in their arsenal to keep him from tickling her taffeta. This off-kilter new musical comedy, featuring a new score from the co-founder of "Fountains of Wayne" and the executive producer of "The Daily Show," is such a rockin' good time, you’d have to be a commie not to love it.
You want funny? I'll give you funny--madly, outrageously funny! If laughter is the best medicine, then CRY-BABY is the whole damn drugstore! "The silliest, most irreverent and madcap musical to hit Broadway in a long time!" "DELIGHTFUL! Hits the high Waters mark! Pleasantly demented and cheerfully subversive. Peppy, vulgar, deadpan foolishness. Delirious lyrics. Even the most ludicrous moments move with fast thinking flair. Pretty stupid, yes, but with brains!" "The most inventive and athletic dancing seen on Broadway all season!" "Candy for adults who like their musicals nutty—and not so nice! An extravaganza of upbeat songs and lowdown dancing, performed by everyone with wild vitality." "This dance-happy show soars! Great musical numbers, smart lyrics, style and humor. I'd happily return!" "Some of Broadway's best dancing this season!"
