New Musicals to Open in Germany & Holland in 2007

Stage Entertainment will present a series of six new original musical and show titles, developed by its international creative division.

The first three openings will take place in 2007: Hans Klok Faster than Magic for the international tour market, a new musical featuring the greatest hits by Udo Jürgens to be presented to German audiences, and Ciske de Rat for the Dutch market. In the following two years, Der Schuh des Manitu, Neverending Story and Wind of Change are scheduled to open in the German speaking territories.

In the past years, the company has built experience in developing new titles such as 3 Musketiers, which was produced in Rotterdam, Berlin and currently Stuttgart. More recently, a creative division was installed to focus fully on creating new show content.
 
"Our target is to present unique theatrical experiences to theatregoers in various countries by working with the top international creatives of the international live entertainment business. We are proud to announce this series of new original shows", explains Ulrike Buerger-Bruijs, heading the International Product Development Department.
