Regional Premiere! The Prince of Egypt is a sweeping epic of a musical with music and lyrics by Grammy and Oscar winner Stephen Schwartz, a book by Philip LaZebnik, and ten new songs written by Schwartz, together with five of his songs from the adored DreamWorks Animation film. Acclaimed as “one of the greatest animated films of all time” (Evening Standard) and “a brilliant film” (The Guardian), it remains one of the most beloved animated feature films of all time, now brought to life in a new musical.
Journey to Ancient Egypt, where a mother’s love leads one woman to send her child into the Nile River's unknown, and another woman to hide the truth about where he came from. The saga of Moses and his brother Ramses, two young men raised together as brothers in a kingdom of privilege, find themselves suddenly divided by a secret past. One must rule as Pharaoh, the other exiled, finally returning to his home and fighting to free his people from the bonds of slavery. From the plagues of Egypt to parting the red seas, this is a story that will change everything, forever. Featuring a soaring score by Schwartz, including ‘All I Ever Wanted,’ ‘Through Heaven's Eyes,’ ‘Footprints on the Sand,’ ‘Deliver Us,’ and, the Academy Award winning song, ‘When You Believe.’
Starring Jacob Dickey as Moses (from Aladdin on Broadway as Aladdin), Senzel Ahmady as Tzipporah (from Aladdin on National Tour as Jasmine), Koray Tarhan as Ramses (from Merrily We Roll Along on Broadway as Daniel Radcliffe's Understudy)
and featuring Thomas Warfield as Jethro
“This ‘Prince’ is the new king of musicals. An event to dazzle, musical theatre doesn’t come bigger than this.” Stefan Kyriazis, Sunday Express
