YOU WANT FUNNY?
I’LL GIVE YOU FUNNY – MADLY, OUTRAGEOUSLY FUNNY! It is, in fact, the funniest new musical since Avenue Q. If laughter is the best medicine, then CRY-BABY is the whole damn drugstore.”
-The Wall Street Journal
“DELIGHTFUL! HITS THE HIGH WATERS MARK! Pleasantly demented and peppy, vulgar, deadpan foolishness. Delirious lyrics. Even the most ludicrous moments move with fast-thinking flair. Pretty stupid, yes, but with brains!”
-Newsday
“THE SILLIEST, MOST IRREVERENT AND MADCAP MUSICAL TO HIT
BROADWAY IN A LONG TIME!”
-WOR Radio
“THE MOST INVENTIVE AND ATHLETIC DANCING SEEN ON BROADWAY ALL SEASON!”
-Daily News
“CANDY FOR ADULTS WHO LIKE THEIR MUSICALS NUTTY – AND NOT SO NICE! An extravaganza of upbeat songs and lowdown dancing, performed by everyone with wild vitality.”
-The Star-Ledger
“THIS DANCE-HAPPY SHOW SOARS! Great musical numbers, smart lyrics, style and humor. I’d happily return!”
-The Record

It's 1954 and the bluebloods of Baltimore are facing an atomic-sized threat in hip-swiveling jeans. From the delightfully demented mind of John Waters and the
writers of Hairspray comes the story of a guitar-playing rebel and the good girl who dares to cross to his side of the tracks. What starts as an innocent romance balloons like a mushroom cloud...as the squares use every weapon in their arsenal to keep him from tickling her taffeta. This off-kilter new musical comedy, featuring a new score from the co-founder of Fountains of Wayne and the executive producer of The Daily Show, is such a rockin good time, you'd have to be a commie not to love it.
My heart is aching almost breaking. If you hear me come back to me. Tear drops are falling and you made me cry!!! I'm now in Misery, Agony, Helplessness, Hopelessness, Heartache and Woe!!! The show was AMAZING today and I really did cry during the curtain call because your show was just that great. I think the regular Broadway fans just didn't get it!! But I get you Cry-Baby!!
Cry Baby closing!!! i can't even describe how upset i am, i thought Cry baby was just incredible, it was fun and funny and sarcastic it was great and now what is going to happen? well no matter what i am proud to say that i will always be a die hard Cry baby FAN!!!
Hey it's James Snyder, (I played Cry-Baby Walker on Broadway), I just wanted to let everyone know that I have a CD release party for my new album on August 11th at 7:30 at Joe's Pub here in NY. www.joespub.com for tickets. Some of the cast will be there and I'll be playing from the album as well as from some other "past projects" if you catch my drift.
Sorry that the show is closing so soon. I know some of the critics haven't been very kind, but I always had hope for you. Too bad I never got a chance to see it. Maybe it should have out-of-towned here in Seattle liek it originally planned :-)
Please try to release a cast album though! I'm in love with "Screw Loose" and "A Little Upset"!
Very upset to hear the show is closing already.Why so soon?Glad to have seen it a few weeks ago.It was hilarious and the acting was perfect! Well good luck on tour..
I'm sorry to hear that the show will be closing. I was really hoping to see it on Broadway. I hope you will bring the show to Arizona on your tour. Will the Cast Recording still be released?
i'm extremely sad that i won't be able to see cry baby. i was hoping to make it into the city for the 4th of july to catch a flight out to europe, but now i really can't see it!
i'm so bummed, you have no idea. keep the dream alive! and release the soundtrack so those who can't see the show can listen to the key points of it all!
