“A Winner! Funny, outstanding, and joyous, with a big heart and electric choreography.”
– The Boston Globe
REAL WOMEN HAVE CURVES: THE MUSICAL is a funny, joyous, and empowering new show coming to Broadway this April. It’s the summer of 1987, and Ana Garcia dreams of flying away from East Los Angeles. But when her family’s garment business receives a make-or-break order for 200 dresses, Ana finds herself juggling her own ambitions, her mother’s expectations, and a community of women all trying to make it work against the odds. Based on the play by Josefina López that inspired the iconic hit film, with music by Grammy® Award-winning composer Joy Huerta (Of Jesse & Joy) and Benjamin Valez (Kiss My Aztec), book by Lisa Loomer (Girl, Interrupted) with Nell Benjamin (Mean Girls), and directed by Tony Award®winner Sergio Trujillo (Ain’t Too Proud), REAL WOMEN HAVE CURVES “makes us feel we can all soar!” (WBUR)
Performances Begin April 2nd, 2025 at the James Earl Jones Theatre.
“Simply sumptuous! Filled with the fabric of compassion, joy, and pride. This is very, VERY good.”
