The musical play<\/a> inspired by Gwyneth Paltrow’s now infamous legal battle<\/a> with Utah optometrist Terry Sanderson is transferring to the U.S, Variety has exclusively learned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But rather than head straight to Broadway, \u201cGwyneth Goes Skiing\u201d will return to where it all began \u2014 Utah \u2014 with The Egyptian Theatre in Park City set to host the Awkward Productions show. Creators Linus Karp and Joseph Martin will reprise their roles as Paltrow and Sanderson on stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The transfer will also include the voice of Paltrow\u2019s \u201cGlee\u201d co-star Darren Criss, who is lending his vocal chops to the soundtrack alongside comedian Cat Cohen (\u201cWhat We Do in the Shadows\u201d). Criss will provide Sanderson\u2019s singing voice while Edinburgh Fringe winner Cohen takes on Paltrow, belting out hits including \u201cSee You in Court\u201d and \u201cI Wish You Well.\u201d The songs were written by Leland (\u201cRuPaul\u2019s Drag Race\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trixie Mattel also joins digitally as Paltrow\u2019s mother Blythe Danner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGwyneth Goes Skiing\u201d is an interactive musical comedy that tells the story of Paltrow\u2019s fateful 2016 encounter with Sanderson on a Deer Valley ski slope which resulted in Sanderson suing Paltrow after he accused her of skiing into him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paltrow disputed Sanderson\u2019s account, saying he skiied into her, and counter-sued for $1 plus legal fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The case went to trial last year, with the jury siding eventually with Paltrow<\/a>. But it prompted a number of viral moments and memes<\/a>, resulting in numerous documentaries and a musical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In \u201cGwyneth Goes Skiing\u201d the audience are not only involved in the play, they also act as the jury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Awkward Productions have previously produced shows including \u201cDiana: The Untold and Untrue Story.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
