Real Women Have Curves will begin its Broadway run April 1 at the James Earl Jones Theatre, but 半岛体育 has an advance look at the show. Above, see the cast perform four songs: "Make It Work," "Flying Away" (performed by Tatianna C贸rdoba), "Already Know You" (performed by Mason Reeves and C贸rdoba), and the show's title song.

Real Women Have Curves will officially open April 27. Starring newcomer Tatianna C贸rdoba as ambitious high school senior Ana Garcia, the project is being helmed by Sergio Trujillo, who's directing and choreographing. The musical is adapted from Josefina L贸pez's 1993 play, which also had a 2002 film version. With a score by Joy Huerta and Benjamin Velez and a book by Lisa Loomer with Nell Benjamin, the work follows a first-generation child of Mexican immigrants torn between joining the family garment business or embarking on her own dream of attending college in NYC.

Justina Machado (One Day at a Time) will play Carmen Garcia, Ana鈥檚 hardworking mother who imagines a traditional life for her daughter. C贸rdoba and Machado will be supported by Florencia Cuenca as Estela, Shelby Acosta (1776) as Prima Flaca, Carla Jimenez as Pancha, Aline Mayagoitia (SIX) as Itzel, Mason Reeves (Frozen) as Henry, Jennifer S谩nchez (Elf) as Rosal铆, Sandra Valls as Prima Fulvia, and Mauricio Mendoza as Ra煤l Garcia. Cuenca, Jimenez, Mayagoitia, Reeves, and Valls are all making their Broadway debuts in the production, and all but Mayagoitia are reprising their performances from the musical's 2024 world premiere.

The company will also include Ariana Burks, Quincy Hampton, Zeus Mendoza, Claudia Mulet, Christopher M. Ramirez, Monica Tulia Ramirez, Shadia Fairuz, Elisa Galindez, and Omar Madden.
