A riveting love story, the long running Broadway and West End blockbuster, is based on the timeless Puccini’s Madame Butterfly.
Opening in Saigon amidst the turmoil of the last days of the Vietnam War, an American GI and a Vietnamese girl fall in love, only to be separated during the dramatic fall of Saigon. Their struggle to find each other over the ensuing years ends in tragedy for her and a fighting chance for the child he never knew he had. Raw and uncompromising, Miss Saigon is an intensely personal story of the losses and sacrifices made in a world gone mad.
In December 1994 the London production became the Theatre Royal's longest running musical, eclipsing the record previously set by My Fair Lady. Now, it is Hamilton’s turn to experience Miss Saigon at the Founders Theatre.
Highlights of the show include the evacuation of the last Americans in Saigon from the Embassy roof by helicopter while a crowd of abandoned Vietnamese scream their despair, the victory parade of the new communist regime and Saigon’s frenzied night club scene on what is musically described as The Last Night of The World. Miss Saigon portrays the harsh realities and the tender emotions of war and its consequences.
Miss Saigon “...a triumph of style and substance …not to be missed” - Melbourne Age
