A Queer Renaissance is Making Broadway Fabulous Again

From: Queerty

Plot
Following the same plot as the movie with Bill Murray and Andie Macdowell, Groundhog Day is about a weatherman who keeps waking up on the same day, magically forced to live that day over and over again. His frustration drives him nuts and he does some funny things, but what will happen if he falls in love?

Why The Gays Are Going
The lead actor, Andy Karl, previously starred in the Broadway musical Rocky, which didn’t last very long (singing while boxing? really?), but it gave Karl a great reason to work out and he has a dorky/sexy thing going on that is rather appealing. More importantly, however, is the fact that he is excellent in the musical comedy Groundhog Day. Like Rocky, the plot of Groundhog Day may seem like an odd subject for a musical, but the songs are catchy and the show is funny, very funny. Theater aficionados know a good thing when they see it, and the buzz around town is that this show may be the surprise hit of the season. Go see it soon, so you can be cool before it becomes popular and everyone starts going.
