Something Rotton

Something Rotten is a musical comedy from the minds behind Mrs. Doubtfire and The Book of Mormon, so expect clever writing and catchy songs. The show follows two brothers, Nick and Nigel Bottom, struggling playwrights in the Renaissance who are trying to come up with the next big hit while Shakespeare is hogging the spotlight. It's a humorous take on the birth of musical theater. This production at Anderson's Mainstage Theatre on Friday, November 13, 2026, offers a chance to see a contemporary Broadway hit in a local setting. The Mainstage is known for its comfortable theater experience, and this show should appeal to anyone who enjoys witty dialogue, historical satire, and a good laugh.
