The stars of MISS SAIGON appear at the 2014 Royal Variety Performance!

The stars of the West End revival of popular mega-musical MISS SAIGON, Jon Jon Briones and Alistair Brammer, discuss their participation in the new production while attending this year's edition of the annual Royal Variety Performance.

MISS SAIGON recently made its highly anticipated return to the West End on Saturday May 3 2014 at the Prince Edward Theatre and is currently booking for performances through to Saturday 25th October 2014. Cameron Mackintosh's new production of Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg's epic musical has played in 300 cities in 15 different languages, winning awards around the world since the sensational record-breaking run at London's Theatre Royal Drury Lane 25 years ago. This epic love story tells the tragic tale of young bar girl Kim, orphaned by war, who falls in love with an American GI called Chris - but their lives are torn apart by the fall of Saigon.

MISS SAIGON has music by Claude-Michel Schönberg with lyrics by Richard Maltby Jr. and Alain Boublil, adapted from original French lyrics by Alain Boublil. This new production will be directed by Laurence Connor with Musical Staging by Bob Avian and additional Choreography by Geoffrey Garratt, Production Design by Totie Driver and Matt Kinley from an original concept by Adrian Vaux, Costume Design by Andreane Neofitou, Orchestrations by William David Brohn, Lighting Design by Bruno Poet and Sound Design by Mick Potter.
