originally published: 01/13/2026

(CRANFORD, NJ) -- CDC Theatre presents It Shoulda Been You across three weekends from February 13 to March 1, 2026. This is Broadway's wild musical farce with blushing brides, nervous grooms, overbearing moms, unexpected guests and plenty of crazy twists and turns.

Chaos, secrets, and laughs abound as two families, one Jewish, one Catholic, collide in a whirlwind of love, identity, and unexpected twists.

It Shoulda Been You features Book & Lyrics by Brian Hargrove; Music by Barbara Anselmi. The production team: Director: Zachary Mazouat; Music Direction by: Catherine Corcoran;  Producer: Elizabeth Howard;  Stage Management: Dana Dispoto.
