Titanic, the Musical is based on the true story of the maiden voyage of the ultra-luxurious, “unsinkable” RMS Titanic. The show captures the exhilaration surrounding this technological wonder and the hopes and dreams of the many people who were on board. It is both serious and entertaining as the audience is introduced to the real-life individuals who played an integral part in the fateful journey. Their aspirations are brought to light and their character revealed as they deal with issues such as class, immigration, and mankind's vulnerability in the face of nature. With rich and stirring music, this monumental musical will make a lasting impression.
