What is Joy The Musical about?
Joy Mangano is a single mom struggling to keep her family afloat in the face of her mother’s agoraphobia, her deadbeat ex-husband Tony’s interference and ever-growing financial issues. One day, frustrated by a faulty cleaning product, Joy comes up with an idea that will change her future forever: the Miracle Mop. Joy pursues her dream of making the product accessible to working moms all across the country, inventing a bright new future for herself and her family. But when a sexist, corrupt corporation tries to halt Joy’s entrepreneurial efforts, she must fight to defend her dreams and stand up for what is right.
This inspiring story of perseverance, innovation and self-belief is based on the thrilling true story of self-made entrepreneur and QVC queen Joy Mangano. Her story was previously adapted into the 2015 movie Joy , starring Jennifer Lawrence, and this new musical version draws from both the film and Mangano’s autobiography Inventing Joy .
Joy premiered in New Jersey in 2022 before being further developed for its NYC run. “Heartwarming and stirring” (Broadway World), you wont want to miss this absolutely joyful new musical.
