About the Show
A DAMNED FUNNY MUSICAL
See the world’s most notorious women carry a tune. Or an axe. Or a grudge. Featuring four talented performers playing over twenty roles, HELL’S BELLES is a fast-paced, razor-sharp new musical.
In Hell’s theater district, a show-biz-loving devil hosts a revue featuring famous and infamous women from history. Hear Janis Joplin celebrate sex, drugs, booze and rock ‘n’ roll. Watch the epic showdown between Bette Davis and Joan Crawford. Witness Princess Diana’s surprise visit from Heaven. These are just some of the women you’ll meet in the underworld’s longest-running club. Check the video clip for a look behind-the-scenes.
