Matthew Broderick Stars in Jimmy Kimmel’s New Musical

Jimmy Kimmel Live! is in New York City this week, and so, of course, it’s doing all the most touristy things. Visit to the Empire State Building? Check. And next on the list is, of course, staging your own fake Broadway musical starring Tony Award–winning and much beloved New Yorker Matthew Broderick. While the bit is initially intended as a setup for one of Kimmel’s man-on-the-street bits, he does eventually have to show us the actual Captain Sully musical. This is a theater town, after all, and you can’t just casually mention dancing geese if you don’t have a chorus line of humans waiting backstage in full geese costumes ready to jazz dance. We fight people for less.
