Pretty Woman: The Musical has been hailed by critics as one of the hottest and best shows off Broadway: the acting and dancing skills are phenomenal; the cast, adaptation, choreography, and music are wonderful; and the production itself is dazzling beyond words. All the more reasons why you shouldn’t miss it!
When the film dropped in 1990, it blew people around the globe away, and now, over 30 years later, it still does, but the musical delivers the romantic story right to the heart. The film’s director, Garry Marshall, and screenwriter, J.F. Lawton, executed their vision for a stage version of their timeless story to perfection, and under the skillful hand of two-time Tony Award-winning director Jerry Mitchell (Kinky Boots, On Your Feet!), life was blown into a theatrical production that caused a buzz around the globe. Canadian rock god Bryan Adams and his songwriting partner, Jim Valance, delivered an original score to be reckoned with, even featuring Roy Orbison and Bill Dee’s smash hit that served as the inspiration behind the story “Oh, Pretty Woman".
"A business tycoon, Edward, specializes in selling off businesses, regardless of the lives he is destroying by doing so. He finds himself without a partner for a series of fancy functions, upon which he then hires a sex worker to escort him. She, much like Edward, goes about her work with detachment. However, as time progresses, they find themselves feeling a little bit more comfortable in each other’s company than they otherwise would have liked, discovering that they might be falling for each other. Can this blossoming romance turn both of their lives around?"
The stellar touring cast that will be bringing Pretty Woman: The Musical to the wonderful 2,400-seat Adler Theatre, which is no stranger to Broadway productions, comprises Ellie Baker as Vivian Ward, Chase Wolfe as Edward Lewis, Rae Davenport as Kit De Luca, Liam Searcy as Philip Stuckey, Kerry D. Jovanni as David Moore, and Sarah Wang as Violetta.
The Adler Theatre offers comfortable seating spread over two floors: the main floor and the balcony. Whether you prefer to be closer to the stage for that intimate experience or have a bird’s-eye view of all the action, every seat in the house is a good seat!
