Judd Apatow is a Broadway musical nerd

Hollywood comedy director Judd Apatow is a Broadway musical nerd.

He saw “Hedwig and the Angry Inch” and “Les Misérables” last week with his family, and told us, “We like seeing all the different casts and then we decide who played which part better.”

Further proving his taste skews toward the theatrical, he also recalled the wildest live show he’s ever seen was Queen at MSG.

“I was in seventh grade and . . . the police were beating all these kids, and they were all bloody on the street,” he told us of a clash with cops at the show. “[My parents] never wanted to let me take the train to the city to see a concert again, but I evaded them and did.”

Queen infamously had women riding bikes naked onstage at MSG in 1978.
