Inspired by the Academy Award winning film, An American in Paris
transports the audience to postwar Paris, where romance is in the air
and youthful optimism reigns. In this poignant production, Gershwin's
soaring melodies are matched by gravity-defying dance as the world
rediscovers the power of love. Hoping to start a new life, World War
II veteran Jerry Mulligan chooses newly liberated Paris to try and
make his mark as a painter. Jerry's life becomes complicated when he
meets the mysterious Lise, a young Parisian ballet dancer with a
haunting secret who, like Jerry, is yearning for a new beginning. The
winner of four Tony Awards, this exquisite production features classic
Gershwin songs including "I Got Rhythm," "Liza," "'S Wonderful," "But
Not for Me," and "Stairway to Paradise."
