Our next production is the musical "GiGI"
to be presented at Harrogate Theatre in January 2009: -
Book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner : Music by Frederick Loewe: based on a novel by Colette and the MGM film.
Gigi
is a story of La Belle Epoque, Paris at the turn of the 20th century: a
world of beauty and luxury and sophisticates like Honoré and his
handsome nephew Gaston. In this world love is a work of art and also a
business arrangement. Little Gigi is being trained by her Aunt Alicia;
she must learn how to allure, how to recognise the blue flame at the
heart of an emerald, how to choose a cigar - but Gigi doesn't want just
to be someone's mistress, even Gaston's. To his surprise Gaston
discovers that Gigi is the only girl who doesn't bore him.
