a romantic musical
The musical version keeps the original storyline, which skilfully combines a love story with comedy and drama elements. It also pushes the envelope as regards production techniques with its use of the latest technology, blending the real and supernatural world together on stage. The musical premiered in Manchester in March 2011. That same year in June it moved to London, where it had over 500 reprises. The musical was taken to Broadway in the U.S. in April 2012. At present, its English tour is still ongoing and we are only the third mainland European country (after Italy and Holland) where it will be shown. Real theatre magic and illusions which our spectators have never seen here before will be shown at Brno City Theatre’s Music Theatre at the Czech premiere.
