You step off the sidewalk into a corridor of light and sound: neon marquees, the distant rumble of subway trains, and a crowd that smells of late-night coffee and theater glue. Inside the house the hush falls like a soft curtain; velvet seats lean back and the stage waits, bright and impatient. Death Becomes Her is a sharp, blackly comic musical adapted from the 1992 film — a glossy collision of Hollywood vanity and Broadway bravado that keeps its audience laughing even as it’s skirting the macabre.
