Out on Broadway: The Third Coming

New Line Theatre's sporadically produced musical revue Out on Broadway returns for only the third time in 21 years with Out on Broadway: The Third Coming. It's an exceptionally simple set-up: You take five male singers, give them a pianist as accompaniment, and let them loose to tell their stories — the loves, losses and lives of five gay men — through the songs of musicals such as Kinky Boots, Heathers, Hamilton and The Book of Mormon. This lucky third production comes with the added bonus of "Hope," a brand-new song from Jason Robert Brown (composer of The Last Five Years and Parade, among many others), which will open the show. Come for some old favorites and get a couple new surprises as well. Out on Broadway: The Third Coming is performed at 8 p.m. Thursday through Saturday (August 3 to 19) at the Marcelle Theatre (3310 Samuel Shepard Drive; www.newlinetheatre.com). Tickets are $15 to $25.
