Porgy and Bess
A great achievement that left me breatheless
The New York Times
Why see Porgy and Bess?
Set in Charleston's fabled Catfish Row, the beautiful Bess struggles to break free from her scandalous past, and the only one who can rescue her is the crippled but courageous Porgy.
Threatened by her formidable former lover Crown, and the seductive enticements of the colorful troublemaker Sporting Life, Porgy and Bess' relationship evolves into a deep romance that triumphs as one of theater's most exhilarating love stories.
The hit Broadway revival now embarks on a nationwide tour, featuring such legendary songs as "Summertime," "It Ain't Necessarily So," and "I Got Plenty of Nothing."
