It’s summer and the hills are alive with the sound of musicals. Never before have there been so many productions – from originals to tried and true favourites – being staged in Hong Kong in close succession.
Here are nine that fans of this popular theatre genre should not miss.
More than 55 years after it opened on Broadway, Jesus Christ Superstar is finally making its Hong Kong debut. With glittery make-up and a rock opera soundtrack, the musical is a modern twist on a biblical story, examining the relationship between Jesus and his followers, and how those relationships unravelled in his final days.
When and where: July 8-August 1, Grand Theatre, Hong Kong Cultural Centre, 10 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui. For tickets, visit jcs-hk.gmg-productions.com.
The classic musical Cats returns to Hong Kong for the fourth time, having first arrived in the city in 1994. The musical, which originally opened in London’s West End in 1981, has earned mixed reviews over the years. While some people say it lacks a central narrative, others revere it for its originality. There’s no doubt, however, that the musical has made its mark on history.
