Attention, world! Trisha Paytas, the human equivalent of a glitter bomb in a tornado, is sashaying her way to Broadway! Yes, you heard that right. The internet’s favorite wildcard has traded mukbangs and podcasting for jazz hands and show tunes. But don’t get too comfy—it’s just for one night.
“I’m literally more gagged than a drag queen’s corset,” Trisha gushed to People, dropping this bombshell during her Trishmas Live concert on December 9. The extravaganza, titled Trisha Paytas’ Big Broadway Dream (because subtlety is so last season), will grace the iconic St. James Theatre on February 3. Fun fact: Nicole Scherzinger is currently starring there in Sunset Boulevard. Let’s hope Nicole left some diva magic in the dressing room for Trisha.
Here’s the kicker: this all started as an April Fool’s prank. Yes, Theatrely joked earlier this year that Trisha would be taking on the role of Roxie Hart in Chicago. Trisha’s response? “I was like, ‘What in the jazz-hands hell is this?!’ People were thrilled for me, and I was like, ‘Oh no, sweetie, this isn’t a thing.’” Spoiler: it is now. Because if there’s one thing Trisha Paytas can do, it’s turn a joke into a headline—and a headline into a Broadway production.
This isn’t just karaoke night, though. Oh no, no, no. Trisha is coming for your wigs. “I’m in vocal lessons, babes,” she revealed. “This is gonna be a spectacle—ensembles, tricks, magic. Bigger than life. Maybe too big. Like, I-might-break-the-stage big.”
Tickets go on sale this Friday at 10 AM ET at TrishaOnBroadway.com. All proceeds benefit the Entertainment Community Fund, so you can watch the chaos unfold anddo something good for the world.
If you miss this, don’t say Trisha didn’t warn you. Because much like her TikTok dances, this is a one-of-a-kind experience that might make you laugh, cry, or question reality. Broadway may never be the same.
