Darren Criss Says MAYBE HAPPY ENDING Will Be 'A Spectacle and A Half'

Maybe Happy Ending will begin previews on Wednesday, September 18, 2024 and open on Thursday, October 17, 2024 at the Belasco Theatre.

Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winner Darren Criss will return to the stage alongside Helen J Shen in the Broadway premiere of the new musical Maybe Happy Ending. According to the Emmy-winning star, the "wildly original"new musical promises to be "a spectacle and a half.

Recently, Darren stopped by Z100's Morning Zoo in support of the upcoming Elsie Fest, and took a minute to discuss his latest Broadway venture.

"I think people think this is going to be a small, cute little show about robots in the future." Darren said, "This is a balls-to-the-wall spectacle in the way that in the 80s, we had Miss Saigon and The Phantom of the Opera-- these huge, theatrical spectacles that like, when you went to the theatre it was like, 'Whoa, how did they do that?'"

Host E;lvis Duran asked the star if audiences could expect anything akin to the iconic Phantom chandelier as part of the production. Darren replied, "I think there will be something like a chandelier that will be the new version of, 'Oh my God, that's the big thing to see on Broadway.'"

The show features music by Will Aronson, lyrics by Hue Park and book by both Aronson and Park. Direction is by Tony Award-winner Michael Arden. Maybe Happy Ending will also feature Dez Duron who makes his Broadway debut along with Shen.

Maybe Happy Ending will begin previews on Wednesday, September 18, 2024 and open on Thursday, October 17, 2024 at the Belasco Theatre (111 W. 44th St.). Final casting as well as ticketing and on-sale information will be announced at a later date.

Having led the visual development of the piece since 2018, Tony Award-nominee Dane Laffrey (A Christmas Carol, Once on This Island) will design the Set and Additional Video, while Costume Design is by Tony Award-winner Clint Ramos (KPOP, Eclipsed), Lighting Design is by Tony Award-nominee Ben Stanton (A Christmas Carol, Fun Home), Sound Design is by Tony Award-winner Peter Hylenski (Moulin Rouge!: The Musical, Beetlejuice),

Video Design by George Reeve (Stephen Sondheim’s Old Friends, UK), Deborah Abramson (The Gardens of Anuncia) is the Music Supervisor and John Yun will be the Music Director. Casting is by Telsey & Co, Craig Burns, CSA and Justin Scribner is the Production Stage Manager.

Inside a one-room apartment in the heart of Seoul, Oliver (Criss) lives a happily quiet life listening to jazz records and caring for his favorite plant. But what else is there to do when you’re a Helperbot 3, a robot that has long been retired and considered obsolete? When his fellow Helperbot neighbor Claire (Shen) asks to borrow his charger, what starts as an awkward encounter leads to a unique friendship, a surprising adventure, and maybe even...love? Winner of the Richard Rodgers Award, Maybe Happy Ending is the offbeat and captivating story of two outcasts near the end of their warranty who discover that even robots can be swept off their feet. Helmed by visionary director and Tony Award winner Michael Arden (Parade, Once on This Island), with a dazzling scenic design by Dane Laffrey (A Christmas Carol) and book, music, and lyrics by the internationally acclaimed duo Will Aronson and Hue Park, Maybe Happy Ending is a fresh, original musical about the small things that make any life worth living.

Hey!! Not sure if you watch variety mash ups. The actors on actors. I think the pairings are really good and sometimes really uh interesting lol Was wondering if you have a pairing that you would really like to see ?

Hey! Yeah! I love all of the round tables and the actors on actors sessions, although I haven't watched many of them yet this year (just been a very busy few weeks!). I've been particularly looking forward to watching Kieran Culkin's one with Claire Danes, espcially because I think Kieran actually interviews other people so well - his Actors on Actors with Dan Levy a couple of years ago shows that really demonstrates that.

There are so many Actors on Actors interviews I'd love to see, but I have Succession on the brain still and given these sorts of interviews are usually in the lead up to the Emmys, I'm going to do the main Succession actors and the current Emmy contenders I'd love to see them do one with:

Alan Ruck and Henry Winkler (Barry). Two actors who broke big as iconic 80s characters (Cameron Frye and The Fonz!) who made their careers in sitcoms only to get these new career defining roles in their 60s and 70s? Love it for them and for us and I feel like they'd be a lot of fun to watch.

Jeremy Strong and Rhea Seehorn (Better Call Saul). I couldn't tell you specifically why with these two, but I do think they've had some similarities career wise where they've been jobbing actors for such a long time and are both experiencing unmatched recognition and success in their 40s. I also think they're both really thoughtful actors who have real insight both into the interiority of their characters and the themes of their respective stories, and I just thinking getting to hear them talk would be neat.

Sarah Snook and Melanie Lynsky (Yellowjackets). I almost put Sarah with Rhea, but it feels almost too obvious, haha. Yellowjackets is a really different show to Succession, but I think there's this really interesting territory between the shows in terms of female rage, repression and survival that would be super ripe for discussion. Plus Sarah and Melanie both being antipodean - - it just feels right to me.

Kieran Culkin and Bill Hader (Barry). The comedy vs drama balance! The cycles of violence and trauma and the different outlets their characters have for that! Another opportunity for comical height difference! The convo would be great, I can feel it.

Matthew MacFadyen and Hannah Waddingham (Ted Lasso). This would be the most British Actors on Actors imaginable, haha, but they're another one who have interesting parallels personally and professionally, particularly being the children of performers (Matthew's mother was an actress and Hannah's an opera singer), and to talk about that along with the English theatre scene, which they're both very familiar with too, would be interesting, I think.

J Smith Cameron and Sheryl Lee Ralph (Abbott Elementary). I mean, who wouldn't want this one? Their respective backgrounds in theatre, their roles in formative 90s cinema (The First Wives Club! SIster Act 2!), both of them having paid their dues in a zillion one or two ep arcs on every imaginable procedural. I just love that.

Brian Cox and Harriet Walter (Succession / Ted Lasso). I mean, obviously, right?? We were robbed of more scenes with the two of them on the show, but the fact they've been acting with each other on stage since at least the 1980s is magic. Tell me everything, and also every headcanon you dreamt up about Logan and Caroline's relationship.

Claire London’s Stardust EP is a Manifestation of a Sonic and Lifestyle Shift

Claire London releases her latest EP, Stardust, featuring an inspiring collection of music that captivates all things pop, rock, soul, and blues. London explores a versatile new phase in her journey by experimenting with multiple genres of music. Stardust, one of her most personal releases yet, is now available to stream and download on all major platforms globally. Stardust combines themes of empowerment, reflection, and rejuvenation, drawing inspiration from her transformation when entering motherhood. After welcoming her daughter into the world in 2020, Claire London experienced a profound shift in her artistic vision, feeling compelled to strip away the electronic elements that had defined much of her earlier music. Stardust sees London embracing a whole new style, drawing inspiration from the blues, rock, and soulful sounds that have always resonated deeply with her. London explains, “For the past few years, and especially after I became a mother, I was feeling a strong desire to simplify and return to something that felt more raw and authentic. With this EP, it feels like I’m making a return to my roots, going back to the kind of music that feels like home.” London feels nostalgic about Stardust as she reminisces about the little 5-year-old girl who fell in love with the sounds of blues and soul music. In the high-energy lead single and title track, “Stardust,” she explores the juxtaposition of ambition with the fragile nature of life, featuring all live instruments and her iconic voice. “Black Leather” sets a compelling tone by introducing sultry vocals with electrifying guitar and drums. The track emphasizes the feeling of love when meeting her husband, as he has inspired her to be the best version of herself. “Same Old Story,” which was co-written with her brother, Oscar-winning editor Andrew Buckland, and “Pull of Time,” showcase her rich vocals and powerful songwriting ability. The talented Grammy-award-winning Mitch Dane produced Stardust and assisted in the mastery of this groundbreaking EP. Growing up, Claire London knew her natural ability to sing and felt driven to pursue her talent. She moved to New York City to chase her dreams starting in various girl groups and cover bands on her quest to discovery, and adopted the stage name Claire London from The Cutting Room Studios, who assisted in the release of her first album, Like a Machine, and EP, Hit the Switch. In 2015, she moved to Los Angeles and co-founded Female Frequency, a space for women to collaborate within the music industry, and released a collaborative EP. After becoming a mother in 2020, London spearheaded the Mamas in Music Podcast in connection with the Mamas in Music non-profit, and works closely with the organization to champion mothers in the music industry. When taking on her musical transition, she connected with Nashville producer Mitch Dane, who helped bring her new sound to life. They drew influence from artists like Fleetwood Mac, Jack White, and The Civil Wars. Stardust reveals her musical origins, embracing her rock and blues identity. With her stunning vocals at the forefront, Claire London is poised to captivate audiences once again with Stardust, a powerful testament to her artistic growth and evolution. These tracks capture her inspiration and dedication to making music she embodies and feels true to. Listen to Stardust on all streaming platforms now and follow Claire London on Instagram @ClaireLondonMusic.
