Marguerite: Marguerite is a musical from the team who wrote Les Miserables and Miss Saigon, with book by Alain Boublil, Claude-Michel Schnberg and Jonathan Kent. Lyrics by Herbert Kretzmer and music by Michel Legrand.
A love story set in Paris during the Second World War, Marguerite draws inspiration from one of the greatest of romantic novels, La Dame aux Camellias, by Alexandre Dumas.
Marguerite is the beautiful and notorious mistress of a high ranking German officer. Armand is a young musician half her age who falls obsessively in love with her. Their dangerous love story is played out against the background of occupied Paris.
This is a rare opportunity to perform a modern West End musical (it originally opened at the Theatre Royal Haymarket, London in 2008). In fact, Ramsgate Operatic Society is the only amateur company with permission to stage this show in 2012!
