What really happened on the TITANIC …….and all set to music …

 

James Cameron’s Titanic is back on the big screen so someone obviously believes that the heart will go on and on  ….  making that poor unpaid Iceberg help rake in more millions of dollars.  But wait there is hope …… if you are in NY you can get the real story of what happened that night when Celine Dion was singing her heart out.

Titanique is a Céline Dion jukebox musical that tells the story at the heart of the 1997 blockbuster sensation Titanic from the perspective of the Canadian singer, who in this adaptation claims she survived the sinking of the actual boat. It’s 90 minutes of pure camp, powerhouse-ballad belting, and rapid-fire pop-culture references,  and best of all, unlike the movie, it doesn’t take itself seriously at all.

 

 

Much like the infamous ship itself, Titanique is a heady mix of a high and low culture built by and for the gays but also — as creators Marla Mindelle and Constantine Rousouli insist,  it incidentally appeals to straight people too. It may not make as much money as Titanic the film  (some $2.2428 billion and still counting) BUT it does play to sellout crowds and had to move to a larger space
