Alice Fishbein will bringing her one-woman parody re-enactment of Titanic to Under St. Marks TOMORROW, July 11th! It’s been 84 years… or 26, since April 1999, when six-year-old Alice was finally allowed to watch James Cameron’s classic, Titanic, on VHS, and a star was born.
Written and performed by Fishbein and directed by Ryann Lind, Leo Still Dies in the End features Alice playing ALL the roles and the scenes are randomly selected by a prize wheel.
Some may call it a sickness, but Alice calls it “nostalgia.” Leo Still Dies in the End is a laugh out loud commentary on how the content we consumed as children affects us as we grow up.

The show’s pre-production began in Alice’s parents’ apartment, where a young Alice would mouth the words along to the entire movie. It was soon subsequently banned in the apartment. However, the show concept really formed during a trip to Portugal in 2019 when, during dinners, Alice’s sister started saying, “Alice, do Titanic.”
And “do Titanic” she did.
Born out of a love and obsession for an iconic piece of ‘90s media, Leo Still Dies in the End is, at its core, is a show about never letting go of the things we love.
Be there!
