Don't mind us as we start booking our jaunt to Millburn, New Jersey for HERCULES at Paper Mill Playhouse, NJ Transit ticket in hand.

The brand new musical with an Alan Menken/David Zippel score and Robert Horn and Kwame Kwei-Armah book will play the New Jersey venue February 16 - March 19, 2023. Broadway favorites star in the show! Bradley Gibson will be playing the title role along with Tony winner Shuler Hensley as Hades, James Monroe Iglehart as Phil and Isabelle McCalla as Meg.

Whenever we think of the Hercules score, it is incredibly difficult to not immediately think of the phenomenal "Zero to Hero" and the thrilling numbers sung by the Muses. In the 1997 animated film, Vanéese Y. Thomas (Clio), Lillias White (Calliope), Roz Ryan (Thalia) LaChanze (Terpsichore) and Cheryl Freeman (Melpomene) immortalized song after song.


For this exciting Paper Mill Playhouse production, we would love to shine a spotlight on the new phenomenally talented Muses: Charity Angél Dawson as Clio, Tiffany Mann as Calliope, Anastacia McCleskey as Thalia, Destinee Rea as Terpsichore and Rashidra Scott as Melpomene.
