Titanique is a satiric jukebox musical written by Tye Blue, Marla Mindell, and Constantine Rousouli. The musical is based on the Titanic, and uses the music of Celine Dion. The show has been running Off-Broadway since 2022, first with an engagement at Asylum NYC (June through November 2022), then at the Daryl Roth Theatre. Background The musical is based on the premise that Celine Dion surprises visitors at a Titanic museum to tell the story of Titanic, using her music to do so. The musical follows the main events of the 1997 film, with the exception of the present-day framing device of treasure hunters searching for the Heart of the Ocean. Celine Dion serves as a Greek chorus for most of the show. The musical uses pop culture references for additional humor throughout the show, referencing things like RuPaul's Drag Race and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Productions The original Off-Broadway production featured direction by one of the writers, Tye Blue. The other two co-authors, Mindell and Rousouli, also performed in the cast as Celine Dion and Jack Dawson, respectively. The show was seen by several people associated with the film, such as Victor Garber, as well as Dion's manager and publicist. References
