New Musical! The World Still Needs You, Boris Yeltsin!
June 11, 2025
Join us at 54 Below for a raucous and irreverent evening featuring the songs of The World Still Needs You, Boris Yeltsin! In an unforgettable celebration of this bold and satirical new musical, experience show-stopping numbers like “Wanna Feel Real,” “9-12-ish,” “Demons Out,” and “Make Your Move” like never before! Featuring Grammy Award-winning actor Zach James plus an all-star cast, this concert is produced by Evan Mack, Josh McGuire, and Christopher Mirto, with direction by Jen Wineman (Dog Man the Musical, FIVE, That Parenting Musical).
In a Houston grocery store in 1989, capitalism meets communism when soon-to-not-be-laughingstock-of-Russia Boris Yeltsin makes an impromptu stop on his U.S. tour. Between checkout dreams, closeted security guards, and a lot of vodka, the world is about to change—through song, dance, and absolute chaos. Filled with quintessential Texans and tons of product placement, this musical is a love letter to living your dream, roasting everyone on the political spectrum, and the awesomeness of the 80s. Spoiler alert: Yeltsin ends Communism.
With a rocking four-piece band and a cast of Broadway’s best, this is one concert you don’t want to miss!
Featuring:
Grammy Award winner Zach James (The Addams Family, Hadestown and Akhenaten on the West End) as Boris Yeltsin
and more stars to be announced!
