Riverside Theatre Adds 1/30 MISS SAIGON Performance

Riverside Theatre's production of Miss Saigon is a big success with critics and audiences alike! And, due to popular demand a performance has been added on Thursday, January 30th at 2pm. The show will still close Sunday, February 2nd.

"With the production needing to close on February 2nd to set up Rodgers and Hammerstein's South Pacific, a Thursday matinee performance was one of only a couple of possibilities for added performances," said Jon Moses, Managing Director of Riverside Theatre.

From the Creators of LES MISERABLES, comes this classic story of love and loss in the turmoil of war. Based on Puccini's Madame Butterfly, this stunning theatrical piece follows the tale of an American soldier and a Vietnamese girl who fall in love, only to be separated during the fall of Saigon in the Vietnamese War. With thrilling, show-stopping musical numbers like "I Still Believe," "Why God Why?," and "The American Dream," Miss Saigon is an epic, musical masterpiece showcasing the enduring emotional power of the human spirit!
