King Kong
Broadway Show
Entertainment Weekly raves, “You’ve never seen anything like KING KONG on stage. Ever.” The modern myth comes alive on Broadway through an innovative mix of robotics, puppetry, music and stagecraft. This “epic, dazzling thrill ride” (Variety) follows the ambitious young actress Ann Darrow and the maverick filmmaker who promises to make her a star. Together, they voyage from the bustling streets of 1930s New York to an uncharted island to capture the world’s greatest wonder. At the center of this 21st-century theatrical reimagining: a 20-foot high, 2,000-pound gorilla and the woman who risks everything to help him. Directed and choreographed by Olivier winner Drew McOnie (In the Heights), KING KONG features an electrifying new score by Marius de Vries (La La Land) and Eddie Perfect (Beetlejuice, the upcoming musical), and a book by Jack Thorne, the Tony® and Olivier Award-winning writer of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Don’t miss the “heart-stopping spectacle” (Newsday) that People Magazine calls “as thrilling as any action movie.”
