On Tuesday, August 11, a room full of comedians will sit down in full character as icons from famous musicals and let the audience grill them until the whole thing falls apart. The show is called Musical Theatre Foolishness, and it lands at Eris at Brooklyn Comedy Collective at 167 Graham Ave.

According to a press release from producer and host Antoine Lee, the format takes the standard post-show “meet the cast” talkback and flips it. Comedians stay fully in character as Broadway icons, seated for audience Q&A, sketch, and improv. The audience asks the questions, the characters answer in voice, and, per the release, nothing is off-limits.
