Titanic: The Musical dramatizes the maiden voyage of the RMS Titanic, which sank after colliding with an iceberg in 1912, one of the most tragic maritime disasters in history.
Synopsis
The musical focuses on the hopes, dreams, and aspirations of the passengers and crew, from the wealthy and famous occupying the upper decks to the emigrants in steerage dreaming of a better life in America.
Through its powerful score and moving narratives, the musical captures the optimism of the early 20th century, the social stratifications of the time, and the universal themes of human nature in the face of disaster.
