'An exhilarating blend of the best of Broadway and Hollywood.'
BEIJING MORNING PAPER
'Takes audiences on an exciting and innovative journey through classic films.'
BEIJING DAILY
This spectacular show marries clips from Warner and MGM movie musicals with live performers singing the greatest songs of Broadway. The latest in multimedia technology seamlessly integrates classic Hollywood film footage with an original and fun story. Two siblings compete for their family fortune by taking on an epic quest devised by their father to decide who should inherit his movie empire.
Racing against time in this challenge of brother against sister, our wannabe millionaires dash around the globe from glamorous New York to sumptuous China, traveling to exotic locations in glorious musical numbers. This epic show is performed by a brilliant American cast, who come to Edinburgh hot on the heels of an acclaimed world premiere season in Beijing.
Featuring vibrant Broadway hits such as Singin’ In The Rain, New York, New York, Puttin’ On The Ritz, Luck Be A Lady and Some Enchanted Evening, together with iconic Hollywood footage from Casablanca, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, South Pacific, Singin’ in the Rain and Guys and Dolls.
Reel to Real, Hamlet! The Musical, and Barbershopera have all been nominated in the Musical Theatre Matters awards, with Barbershopera getting three nods and the other shows one each. Read the full story here.
Edinburgh Evening News has named Reel to Real its HOT TICKET for Fringe 2010, saying “One day you’ll see this show touring the A list venues, catch it at the Fringe before everyone else.”
The Reel to Real company are currently playing a two-week pre-Edinburgh season in Beijing’s Huairou Theatre. Performances run until 20th June, and packed houses are already loving the show’s updated version – it originally played the same venue last year under its previous title Race For Love.
