BOOK, MUSIC, AND LYRICS BY NICO JUBER
DIRECTED BY TONY AWARD NOMINEE KRISTIN HANGGI
MUSICAL DIRECTION, ARRANGEMENTS, AND ORCHESTRATIONS BY ANTHONY LUCCA
WORLD PREMIERE PRIOR TO ITS MOVE TO NEW YORK
APRIL 30 – MAY 17, 2026
The Colony Theatre in Burbank, CA (Heather Provost, Producing Artistic Director) announced today it will present the world premiere production of Millennials Are Killing Musicals in its 2026 season before the show heads to New York. The original musical comedy, with book, music, and lyrics by Nico Juber, will play a limited engagement from April 30 – May 17.
The production will be directed by Tony Award-nominee Kristin Hanggi, best known for the Broadway and global smash hit Rock of Ages. Anthony Lucca (King of Pangea) will serve as music director, arranger, and orchestrator. Casting is by Michael Donovan, CSA, and Richie Ferris, CSA. Design team and casting news will be announced later.
With a contemporary pop-rock score, this entirely original musical comedy offers a fierce, funny look at identity in the age of social media. Brenda, a single millennial mom, just wants to do better “adulting” (like the seemingly perfect Jake’s mom at her daughter’s school), when her younger #influencer sister Katrina shows up eight months pregnant and totally unprepared for motherhood. The three women work to shed the Greek Chorus of social media filters on their lives to achieve their dreams.
Said Provost, “The Colony Theatre is truly proud to champion new work, especially a New York-bound musical from one of LA’s own best and brightest. Millennials Are Killing Musicals is sharp, funny, and deeply human. It reflects the moment we’re all living in with humor, honesty, and heart, reminding us that great storytelling connects every generation.”
Said Hanggi, “This show asks what’s real in a world curated by algorithms and how we connect when we reveal our messy, brilliant, unfiltered humanity. Comedy is our way in. Millennials Are Killing Musicals is a love letter to imperfection and to women telling their stories on their own terms.”
