The good stuff

  • Messages:

    Wicked hit "Popular" pokes fun at the tween/teen struggle of fitting in. It's playful, but just be aware of how your tween might take it.

    Not an issue.

    Not an issue.

    "Hell" once in "I Dreamed a Dream."

What Parents Need to Know

About Broadway Karaoke Series

Parents need to know that this is a compilation of popular Broadway tunes from beloved musicals such as Wicked and Les Miserables, and although there might be heavy content (death, war, etc.) within the full context and production of some of these musicals, the tunes highlighted here are fine for all ages. It's a fun way to teach your kids about Broadway songs that you've grown up with too.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about how Broadway has changed over the years, and if they think it has been affected by the growth of media and the Internet, as many other artforms have been. Do you think there is still enough interest in going to sit in a theater and see a live musical or play? Will technology ever change that?
