Freaky Friday, also known as Freaky Friday: A New Musical, is a new musical created by Signature Theatre, and Disney.[1] It premiered October 4, 2016, in Washington, D.C. The new musical is based off the original novel by Mary Rodgers & The Walt Disney Motion Pictures films.[2]

With a score by the Pulitzer Prize-winning composers of Next to Normal andIf/Then and a book by Parenthood’s Bridget Carpenter, Freaky Friday is a delightfully entertaining world premiere musical for anyone with a perfectly imperfect family.[3]

Plot[]

When an overworked mother and her teenage daughter magically swap bodies, they have just one day to put things right again before mom’s big wedding. Disney’s Freaky Friday, a new musical based on the celebrated novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films, is a hilarious, contemporary update of an American classic in which a mother and daughter really see what it is to be a family and experience each other’s lives first-hand, if only for a day.
