STALIN: The Musical at Chain Theatre
In this bombastic, historically-questionable, and unapologetically campy comedy musical, history gets hijacked by glitter, groove, and revolution. From boyhood dreams in a Georgian village to a trip to the casino in the shadow of state terror, the show slaps Marxism in a sequined leotard and sends it pirouetting through history.

Anchored by a beleaguered historian desperately trying to keep the facts straight, the musical gleefully skewers authoritarianism, toxic masculinity, and Broadway tropes alike. With failed love interests, rap battles with Lenin, tender soap-carving laments, and a lot of dancing, this might be the most historically inaccurate musical you’ll ever love.

Should this be a musical? (No.) Is it one anyway? (Absolutely.)
