Titanique
Titanique (sometimes stylized as Titaníque) is a jukebox musical featuring music of Celine Dion, with a book by Tye Blue, Marla Mindelle, and Constantine Rousouli, with music supervision, arrangements, and orchestration by Nicholas James Connell. The musical is a parody of the 1997 film Titanic, and the story is a retelling of the movie's events from Dion's perspective.
Following its Los Angeles premiere in 2017, the show opened off-Broadway at the Asylum Theatre in June 2022, before later transferring to the Daryl Roth Theatre. The production won three Lucille Lortel Awards in 2023, including Outstanding Musical. The show opened in the West End in 2025, winning two Olivier Awards including Best Entertainment or Comedy Play. A 2026 Broadway transfer was nominated for four Tony Awards, including Best Musical.
In the present-day, Celine Dion hijacks a Titanic museum tour, where she claims to have survived the Titanic's sinking. Celine begins to narrate her version of what really happened to Jack and Rose, and the other characters from the movie on the night the Titanic sank.
The musical is partially improvised, and uses several pop culture references, including references to RuPaul's Drag Race and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.
The first version of the show played at Los Angeles' Sorting Room Theater as a one-night-only experience titled Titanique: In Concert on 14 December 2017. Book writer Tye Blue directed, with co-writers Marla Mindelle and Constantine Rousouli starring as Céline Dion and Jack, respectively, with Alex Ellis as Rose and music direction by Nicholas Connell who also arranged and orchestrated the music. Other cast members included Peter Porte, Tom Lenk, Drew Droege, Sebastian La Cause, Katherine Tokarz, Tom Detrinis, and Adam Zelasko.
Another concert staging was given at New York City's Green Room 42 inside the Yotel hotel on 25–27 August 2018 with Mindelle, Rousouli, Ellis, La Cause, and Zelasko returning. Joining the cast were Stephen Guarino, Kathy Deitch, Mikhail Thompson, and Mykal Kilgore. It returned to the Green Room for six more performances from 30 November to 3 December 2018.
A fully-staged off-Broadway production began previews at The Asylum Theatre in New York City on 14 June 2022, with an official opening on 23 June 2022. It was once again directed by Blue, music directed by Connell, and choreographed by Ellenore Scott. It starred Mindelle as Dion, Rousouli as Jack, Ellis as Rose, Frankie Grande as Victor Garber, Deitch as Margaret "Molly" Brown, Ryan Duncan as Ruth, John Riddle as Cal, and Jaye Alexander as The Iceberg. The creative team was rounded out with scenic design by Gabriel Hainer Evansohn, costumes by Alejo Vietti, sound design by Lawrence Schober, lighting by Paige Seber, and hair/makeup/wigs by Tommy Kurzman. The production was seen by several people associated with the film, such as Garber, as well as Dion's manager and publicist. The production won Lucille Lortel Awards for Outstanding Musical, lead performer in a musical (Mindelle) and costume design (Vietti). Also nominated were Scott for choreography and Riddle as featured performer.
In November 2022, the production transferred to the Daryl Roth Theatre with the same creative team. Several members of the company remained, except for Ellis, Deitch, Duncan, and Alexander, who were replaced by Carrie St. Louis, Desireé Rodriguez, Russell Daniels, and Avionce Hoyles, respectively. Mark Evans took over the role of Cal, and Wulf Clark was a replacement as Garber, on 24 December 2022. Rosé assumed the role of Garber on 26 January 2023, followed by Willam Belli who took over the role on 5 September 2023. The show closed at the Daryl Roth Theatre on 29 June 2025.
