THE MAKING OF MISS SAIGON is the definitive documentary film companion to one of the greatest
Broadway hits of all time. Witness the evolution of this monumental production from its inception in the sumptuous hills of Provence to its glamorous London debut on a fascinating insider's voyage into the world of the theater. Under the exacting leadership of famed Broadway producer Cameron Mackintosh (The Phantom of the Opera, Cats, Les Misérables) the artistic forces behind the Tony Award®-winning show circle the globe in search of the perfect Miss Saigon. After auditioning thousands of girls in NewYork, Hollywood and Honolulu, they land in Manila where they finally find Lea Salonga whose angelic voice sends a rush of goosebumps--and relief--through the room. Acclaimed stage director Nicholas Hytner invites the camera to peer into the depths of the creative process as the orchestra builds, performances soar and the players hurtle toward the opening night that will determine their destinies.
