Britney Spears was thrilled to lend her discography to Broadway — with one specific caveat.

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.

“Indecent Proposal,” starring Demi Moore and Woody Harrelson as Diana and David, a loving but financially strapped couple approached by John Gage, a playboy billionaire (Robert Redford) with a twisted proposition. The film was a massive hit.

Amy Nicholson “Me Time,” a slapdash comedy by writer-director John Hamburg (“I Love You, Man”), stars Kevin Hart as Sonny Fisher, a stay-at-home parent suffering from what Betty Friedan labeled “the problem with no name.” Sonny feels lonely and out-of-step around adults with concerns more grown-up than his fixation on minivan technology, elementary school talent shows and a proposal to include plant-based milks in the cafeteria. His wife Maya (Regina Hall), a high-powered architect, proposes that he press pause on his domestic responsibilities to reconnect with his own inner needs. She’ll take their two kids Dash and Ava (Che Tafari and Amentii Sledge) over spring break if he’ll agree to attend the 44th birthday blowout extravaganza of his childhood best friend Huck (Mark Wahlberg), a footloose, Peter Pan-esque party boy whose company isn’t much more mature.

Cate Blanchett stars as Phyllis Schlafly, a conservative activist in the 1970s who fought against the Equal Rights Amendment. (Yes, you read that right.)
