Céline Dion Takes a Hilarious Dive in ‘Titanic’ Parody That Will Leave You Laughing!

Camp can be described as a “dangerous component”, remarked Clive Davis in The Times. Frequently, it simply becomes “weary gestures and quips wrapped in a layer of universal irony”. During the initial ten minutes of this “madcap jukebox musical” – a parodic reinterpretation of “Titanic” that draws from the extensive repertoire of the Canadian vocalist Celine Dion – I was convinced we were heading down a dead end. “Everyone loves sailors!” one character exclaimed, causing me to sink deeper into my chair. Yet, astonishingly, I became captivated as the performance gained momentum and the humor flowed rapidly, akin to “‘Airplane!’ with a flair for musical theatre”.

You might assume this “outrageous show” (already a success off-Broadway) primarily caters to “Celine fans, ‘Titanic’ aficionados, bachelorette parties, and drag celebrations”, stated Patrick Marmion in the Daily Mail. “However, in my view, it possesses the broad appeal to run for months, perhaps even years. Titaníque? C’est fantastique!”
