Multi award-winning musical comedy TITANIQUE to dock at Criterion Theatre in London
It has been announced that New York’s ‘must-sea’ and highly anticipated musical comedy, Titanique, will begin performances at the Criterion Theatre in London’s West End on 9 December.
When the music of Céline Dion makes sweet Canadian love with the eleven-time Oscar®-winning blockbuster film Titanic, you get Titanique, off Broadway’s most award-winning splash hit that turns one of the greatest love stories of all time into a hysterical musical fantasia.
Titanique has taken New York by storm – extending multiple times since its premiere in 2022, it has also been recognised with critical acclaim and multiple awards. Now it is coming to the UK.
Want to find out what really happened to Jack and Rose on that fateful night? Just leave it to Céline Dion to enchant the audience with her totally wild take, recharting the course of Titanic’s beloved moments and characters with her iconic song catalogue. Sailing on fierce powerhouse voices in show-stopping performances of such hits as ‘My Heart Will Go On’, ‘All by Myself’ and ‘To Love you More’ – backed by a full live band – Titanique is a one-of-a-kind theatrical voyage bursting with nostalgia, heart and campy chaos.
Producer Eva Price said: “Producing Titanique has been a thrill of a lifetime. I’m so grateful to have productions now happening all over the world, but I’m beyond ecstatic to be coming to the West End. London has always been the epicenter of quality, show-stopping entertainment and I couldn’t be happier then to be dropping anchor in Piccadilly Circus at the esteemed Criterion Theater. I am thrilled Londoners will soon experience the unhinged delight that Titanique brings night after night to Americans.”
The show is written by Marla Mindelle, Constantine Rousouli & Tye Blue, with set design by Gabriel Hainer Evansohn & Grace Laubacher, costumes by Alejo Vietti, lighting by Paige Seber, sound by Lawrence Schober, casting by Pearson Casting CDG, musical supervision, orchestration & arrangements by Nicholas J Connell, choreography by Ellenore Scott, and direction by co-author Tye Blue.
