A Catered Affair Broadway tickets have been casting a spell over theater enthusiasts and critics alike. This musical has ousted large production musicals and big budget plays with its simple storyline and songs that echo the way the earlier musicals did. The truth is that you won't find just one reason to watch this show- you'll find plenty!

Star Cast!

A lot of people have been rushing for A Catered Affair Broadway tickets mainly because of the all-star cast. A big incentive to buy has been Faith Prince, who is no stranger to the stage, especially when it comes to musicals. She is best remembered for her role of Adelaide in the 1992 production of Guys and Dolls. Prince picked up a Tony and a Drama Desk Award for her work in that musical. Critics agree that her performance in A Catered Affair has been nothing short of stunning. Wearing no make-up and rather frumpy clothes, Prince's depiction of the tormented Aggie is dignified and subtle. Yet she brings the character alive in an almost-restrained manner which speaks volumes about her acting abilities.

Kritzer is perhaps best known for her role in Legally Blonde and in many ways, she has been able to really exercise her acting abilities with the role of Jane. This character isn't just your archetypal bride-to-be. She's also struggling with living under the shadow of her perfect brother, something that becomes more difficult after he dies. She's tired of being the second best and just getting by. At the same time, she doesn't expect any miracles from anyone. For her, marriage isn't necessarily about living happily ever after. Kritzer has already been nominated for a Drama Desk Award. Other nominations include Tony, Drama Desk, Drama League and Outer Critics Circle nominations for Prince as well as Tom Wopat.

Movie To Stage

Those who have bought their A Catered Affair Broadway tickets agree that this musical is one of the rare few that has adapted well from screen to stage. Going from stage to screen usually works out well- things like editing and special effects always tend to work in favor of a stage production when it becomes a movie. But when it comes to screen to stage, it's not that simple. In fact, pieces like Breakfast at Tiffany's have done pretty poorly as musicals. But A Catered Affair has successfully adapted itself from the movie The Catered Affair, which starred Bette Davis. The play has modified things a little- there is a gay Uncle who is also part of the family and the proceedings start with the death of the son, who is killed in Korea.

A Catered Affair is enjoyable for so many reasons- the songs, the simple story, the realistic characters. No wonder the passes for the show are so hard to find.
