Take a Sweet Trip to the Tropics at the Lobby of ‘Escape to Margaritaville’

The tropics look like they have landed in New York City. It would be a nice change from the cool, damp weather we keep having.  But instead, this is a photo of the lobby of the Marquis Theatre on W. 46th Street where Escape to Margaritaville is playing. Walk inside and there is some great music playing and the atmosphere is very warm feeling. So it might not be the tropics, but it is a darned nice escape!

Escape to Margaritaville is a Broadway show new this season that features the music of the legendary songwriter/singer Jimmy Buffett. It is described on Broadway.com as follows:

Imagine a place where the sun is hot, the ocean’s warm, and the drinks are as cold as they are plentiful. Welcome to Margaritaville, the island paradise where city folk get away from it all and the locals get into the kind of trouble you can almost always sweet talk your way out of.

Featuring both original songs and your most-loved Jimmy Buffett classics, this new musical is the story of a part-time bartender, part-time singer, and full-time charmer named Tully who thinks he’s got life all figured out. Until a beautiful career-minded tourist steals his heart and makes him question/ everything.

More than a musical. It’s a way of life.

I was in the area of the Marquis Theatre last week doing some research for the June 7th launch of my new walking tour The Broadway / Theater District – History, Shows & The Magic. Once I spotted this display, I had to go in. This lobby has to be one of the most unique Broadway lobbies for decoration and display right now. It gets you in the mood of the show before you even enter the theater. Mr. Buffett’s music is playing to add more to the atmosphere. All in all, it was like having an afternoon visit to a vacation spot.
