Peter Stone and Maury Yeston's heartbreaking musical
The enduring appeal of the doomed maiden voyage of the legendary ship is the focus of this delicately wrought and emotionally engaging Tony-winning musical from Peter Stone and Maury Yeston, sailing into Oklahoma City in July. Directed by Michael Baron, the production will be expanded by a 100 strong choir, lending their talents Yeston's stunning music that draws inspiration from the music of the period. Representing the ship's teeming social strata with everything from Gilbert and Sullivan-esque vaudeville numbers to sweeping orchestral ballads that would make Elgar swoon.
First seen in 1997, the musical explores the hopes and dreams of the passengers as they board the monumental liner in search of a new life. Each class is given their chance to tell their story, capturing the post-Victorian, pre-WWI society for one fleeting moment before the events of April 14, 1912, changed the world forever.
