1942, Nazi Occupied Paris.

The French are torn in two: collaborating safely or dangerously resisting the German rule. At its heart is Marguerite, an ageing chanteuse and the kept mistress of a German general, who falls hopelessly in love with a member of the Resistance only half her age.



Marguerite retells Alexandre Dumas' romantic novel "La Dame aux Camelias", with soaring melodies composed by triple Oscar winner Michel Legrand.

This production features a new book, a reworked seven-piece acoustic orchestration as well as new Michel Legrand songs. Alain Boublil has been involved in the project.

This is the first London revival since the 2008 premiere at the Theatre Royal Haymarket.
