CrazySexyCool – The Musical will tell the “mostly true” story of Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins, Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, and Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas, as they formed TLC and broke barriers as women in the music industry. Bill Diggins’ Diggit Theatrical Group is producing the musical with Stephen Gabriel serving as executive producer.
Written and directed by Kwame Kwei-Armah whose credits include One Love: The Bob Marley Musical, CrazySexyCool will make its world premiere at Arena Stage in June 2026 for 8 weeks as part of the company’s 75th Anniversary season.
“TLC completely changed the game,” Diggins said in a press statement. “Their music gave a voice to women everywhere, empowering them to be confident and unapologetic. But this isn’t just a story about the music; it’s about the sisterhood between these women and what kept them together through both unimaginable challenges and chart-topping success.”
TLC formed in Atlanta in the early 90s and rose to superstardom. Members T-Boz, Chilli and the late Left Eye became icons of a generation; becoming known for self-awareness, female empowerment and sex appeal. They first revealed plans to take their story to the musical stage back in 2023.
“Bringing this story to the stage is a dream come true. We have performed in a lot of different venues all over the world throughout our career, but bringing our story and music to the theater is a totally new and exciting challenge,” said T-Boz.
