Britney Spears‘ generation-defining hits are gracing Broadway in the new musical Once Upon a One More Time, and it turns out that she had a lot to do with that.

Britney Spears was thrilled to lend her discography to Broadway — with one specific caveat.

Jordan Moreau Britney Spears has blessed us with countless hit songs, and so far you’ve been able to listen to them on CD players, streaming services and on screen, but you can now hear her music in a brand new way — in a jukebox musical on Broadway that only uses the pop princess’ hits. “Once Upon a One More Time” reimagines Spears’ songs in a fairytale world, where Cinderella, Snow White and Prince Charming bring the classic children’s stories to life, all while belting out some of the greatest pop hits of the 2000s. The musical marks Spears’ first major project since the end of her conservatorship in 2021, and it was the singer herself who reached out to producers James Nederlander and Hunter Arnold to start collaborating.

Dermot Mulroney took a dramatic stand in support of the ongoing writers strike.

Dermot Mulroney showed his support for the Writers Guild of America’s ongoing strike with Hollywood studios by walking out of his interview on “The View”. ET has learned that the actor, who was there to discuss his career as well as his latest role on the Marvel series “Secret Invasion”, made the demonstration during a pre-taped segment for Friday’s episode of the daytime talk show.

ongoing Writers Guild of America strike.“Since I have such respect for ‘The View,’ a news program with a heart, it was there that I felt comfortable enough to draw attention to the ongoing WGA strike for fair wages and working hours, as I find it incredibly important to continue to support the union,” Mulroney said in a statement to Variety.The “My Best Friend’s Wedding” star told the ABC talk show hosts that he was going to “symbolically walk off in support of the writers.”Mulroney had a friendly interview with the hosts and there was no negative tension, the act was simply a sign of support for the writers who are on strike fighting for pay increases and other benefits.The conversation covered his new series “Secret Invasion,” family, work ethic, his previous roles and longevity in Hollywood.As he left the stage, the “View” hosts kept their composure and Joy Behar plugged Mulroney’s new series again.Mulroney’s segment aired exactly as it was taped, and his walk-off remained in the cut.During the summer, “The View” airs live four days a week, but Friday shows are pre-taped. “The View” airs weekdays at 11:30 a.m.

Dermot Mulroney showed his support for the Writers Guild of America's ongoing strike with Hollywood studios by walking out of his interview on. ET has learned that the actor, who was there to discuss his career as well as his latest role on the Marvel series  made the demonstration during a pre-taped segment for Friday's episode of the daytime talk show. Apparently, the incident was pre-planned and Mulroney's «symbolic» gesture happened toward the end of his interview with longtime host Joy Behar, who was filling in as moderator for Whoopi Goldberg.

A.D. Amorosi While it is debatable that the life of the newly emancipated Britney Spears is a fairy tale at present, the singer’s catalog of hits surely has the feel of a fable with feminist-forward empowerment. That’s what writer Jon Hartmere and director-choreographers Keone and Mari Madrid use as the basis for “Once Upon a One More Time,” their Broadway twist on staid, storybook romanticism and tired male-centric tropes. With its giddy, surprisingly caustic script and rapier-fast score, this pop-musical course correction (authorized by Spears, post-conservatorship) is built for speed and social awareness. For the Madrids (known for their work with Justin Bieber and BTS) and Hartmere (who penned 2017’s cinematic dramedy “The Upside”), the goal of empowering women, crushing the patriarchy and rejecting servitude to Peter Pan-like princes is no easy task. First, we must get through a young girl’s bedtime readings of fairy tales filled with docile female leads who place their men on pedestals.

Britney Spears is sending her love and support to the cast of the Broadway musical Once Upon a One More Time on the show’s opening night!

Once Upon a One More Time” — an even worse Cinderella.Two hours and 30 minutes with one 15-minute intermission. At the Marquis Theatre.The dreadful show, which opened Thursday night at the Marquis Theatre, takes the pop songs of Britney Spears and plops them willy-nilly in a feminist Cinders in which the main character realizes there’s more to life than falling in love with a prince.Good for you, Cindy, but wouldn’t it be nice if you were both a freethinking, independent woman and your musical’s story made a lick of sense?It’s bibbidi-bobbidi-brainless.

Bad Cinderella could have been the poison apple that killed off revisionist fairy tales once and for all, but Britney Spears and Once Upon A One More Time, the new Broadway musical opening tonight that brims with her hits and high spirits, has come along to deliver a happy ever after that’s as unexpected as it is enchanting. Smart, funny, splendid to look at and all with a beat you can dance to, this tribute to the Brothers Grimm, the sisters of the Second Wave and, not least, the indomitable Ms. Spears, is a delight.

Elizabeth Wagmeister Senior Correspondent Dermot Mulroney is showing his support for the writers on strike — in somewhat dramatic fashion. Mulroney walked off “The View” during a segment that is scheduled to air on Friday, a source tells Variety, explaining to the hosts that he was going to “symbolically walk off in support of the writers” as he left the stage toward the end of his interview. Before leaving the stage, the actor asked the hosts if they were getting ready to go to commercial break and then thanked them before walking off mid-segment, according to an individual who was on-set, who adds that Mulroney’s interview was friendly and went smoothly, covering topics of his upcoming Disney+ series “Secret Invasion,” his past roles, his career, family and work ethic and longevity in Hollywood. When Mulroney left the stage, Variety is told the hosts remained professional and Joy Behar plugged his Disney+ series as she tossed to break.
