After picking up four Tony Awards during its 2015 Broadway run, this hit musical (based on the Oscar-winning film) traveled to London’s West End—and now to cinemas around the world. With classic music composed by George and Ira Gershwin, a timeless story, breathtaking dance and state-of-the-art design, Chris Wheeldon’s lavish production “mixes grace and elegance with jazzy verve” (Evening Standard).
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.
