An American in Paris - The Musical (PG)
A cinema screening of this breathtakingly beautiful 2018 Tony Award-winning Broadway musical inspired by the Oscar winning MGM film, tells the impassioned story of discovering love in the ‘City of Light’.
Jerry Mulligan is an American GI striving to make it as a painter in a city suddenly bursting with hope and possibility. Following a chance encounter with a beautiful young dancer named Lise, the streets of Paris become the backdrop to a sensuous, modern romance of art, friendship and love in the aftermath of war.
Featuring the gorgeous music and lyrics of George and Ira Gershwin (including the classic hits, Wonderful and I Got Rhythm), stunning designs and show-stopping choreography, this incredible production received a record-setting 28 five-star reviews from the critics.
The New York Times raves it’s “a triumph! Gorgeous, just plain gorgeous!”
The Wall Street Journal calls it “a masterpiece! An old-fashioned, big-hearted spare-no-expense Broadway romance that instantly catapults Christopher Wheeldon into the ranks of top-tier director-choreographers, like Jerome Robbins and Bob Fosse. It’s been years—decades, really—since I last saw a production like this.”
And Newsday cheers it’s “an extraordinary evening with exuberant, sweeping innovation, dark historical understanding and a big, smart heart.”
