Boop-oop-a-doop! Cultural icon Betty Boop is finally going on a nationwide tour starting in fall 2026! Created by a starry team of Tony and Grammy-winning talent, including direction from Jerry Mitchell (Kinky Boots) and music from David Foster, this exciting new musical sees the beguiling 30's cartoon come to life in her own fully staged story.
Seeing Betty escape her black and white home of ToonTown and discover a technicolor world as she stumbles into present-day New York City, where nothing is as it seems. With a contemporary score that blends golden-age Broadway jazz with today's musical theatre sound, it balances old-school swing with modern storytelling, finally giving Betty the legacy she deserves!
Created by Max Fleischer in 1930, Betty Boop's instantly recognizable flapper-style finger waves and red lips were seen in multiple short animations for Paramount Pictures, gaining fans for her racy attire and cutesy outlook. A victim of the Hayes code, she was given a more demure appearance in the later part of the decade, but it was her original look that best stayed in audiences' minds. With a resurgence coming in the 80s when her shorts were syndicated on cable, Betty became the pop culture icon we know her as today.
