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.

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.
