Pretty Woman – The Musical
Jim Vallance and Bryan Adams wrote the music and lyrics for Pretty Woman, and Garry Marshall and J. F. Lawton wrote the book. The musical takes its name from a 1990 film. The musical was written by Lawton and directed by Marshall. A wealthy businessman called Edward Lewis hires Vivian Ward, a free-spirited Hollywood prostitute, to be his escort for a week. After hanging together for a week, their friendship deepens.
Pretty Woman had its world premiere at Chicago's Oriental Theater in March of 2018. Direction and choreography were handled by Jerry Mitchell, while Samantha Barks and Steve Kazee played the parts of Vivian and Edward.
On August 16, 2018, it premiered at the David T. Nederlander Theater on Broadway to generally negative reviews. A year later, on August 18, 2019, it closed.
In August 2018, Pretty Woman had its first performance on Broadway. The audience and the critics were blown away by this new stage adaptation. Pretty Woman was brought to life on stage by Jerry Mitchell, who won a Tony Award for his work as a director and choreographer. Mitchell was a big part of the musical's success. Of course, Garry Marshall, who directed the original movie and helped turn it into a Broadway show, deserves credit.
Pretty Woman played at the Theater an der Elbe in Hamburg from September 2019 until the COVID-19 coronavirus stopped what was supposed to be a two-year run in 2020.
The Plot
The story of Cinderella is told in a new way in Pretty Woman. A challenging but lonely business mogul Edward Lewis picks up a prostitute named Vivian on the street. As his companion, Vivian is thrown into the high-class world of Beverly Hills, but she soon realizes that she doesn't belong there. She has aspirations for her future but knows she must remain authentic.
During a week of romance, Vivian and Edward go on a journey to learn more about themselves and find true love. Vivian's happiness changes and softens Edward, and he sees that he needs to change his priorities to keep what's most important to him. He remembers what is right and wrong and stops being so cruel in business, which makes his money-hungry lawyer sad. The love between Edward and Vivian goes beyond class differences, and this independent Cinderella gets her Prince.
