Miss Saigon tour has been announced
The tour will be launched at the Newcastle Theatre Royal on 4 October 2025
In the last days of the Vietnam War, 17 year-old Kim is forced to work in a Saigon bar run by a notorious character known as The Engineer. There she meets and falls in love with an American GI named Chris but they are torn apart by the fall of Saigon. For 3 years Kim goes on an epic journey of survival to find her way back to Chris, who has no idea he’s fathered a son.
Michael Harrison in association with Cameron Mackintosh presents a new production of Miss Saigon as Boublil and Schönberg’s legendary musical is reborn. The soaring score features original hit songs including; “The Heat is On in Saigon”, “The Movie in My Mind”, “Last Night of the World” and “The American Dream”.
Mackintosh said: “Thirty five years after Boublil and Schönberg’s legendary musical Miss Saigon first opened to international success, I am delighted that this powerful heart–wrenching love story has remained timeless around the world. The story of two young people – an American soldier and a Vietnamese girl – who fall in love as their lives are torn apart by war, ultimately causing a mother to sacrifice her life for her child, has become a worldwide hit, as well as one of the most popular musicals ever in Asian countries, with separate companies regularly playing in Korea, Japan, the Philippines and Singapore.
