Thanksgiving: The Musical

After seeing TikTok creator Dan Mertzlufft’s Grocery Store: The Musical, TV host James Corden invited the young composer-performer on the November 24 broadcast of The Late Late Show to debut a special Thanksgiving-themed take on the short musical. Corden shared Mertzlufft’s solo version and his own duet version (playing Dad), then he surprised Mertzlufft with even more of the musical, including solos for Mom (Kristin Chenoweth), the Turkey (Josh Gad), Saucy Granny (Patti LuPone), “That Uncle” (Josh Groban), and the Smoke Detector (Audra McDonald).
