Broken Wings

From the producer of The Last Five Years, Cruise, Hair, Rags and The Addams Family, comes the ‘brave new musical’ (Theatre Weekly), BROKEN WINGS. Based on bestselling novelist Kahlil Gibran’s (The Prophet) poetic book, and with an ‘unabashedly romantic’ (The Guardian) score from Middle Eastern duo Nadim Naaman and Dana Al Fardan, this moving production is set to be the theatrical event of the year at Charing Cross Theatre in 2022.

New York City, 1923. Through exquisite poetry and enchanting music, an ageing Gibran narrates our tale, transporting us back two decades and across continents, to turn-of-the-century Beirut. Gibran meets Selma; their connection is instant and their love affair, fated. However, their journey to happiness is soon thrown off course, as the pair face obstacles that shake the delicate foundation of their partnership. Will their love win out or will their dream of a life together be torn apart?

Performed in-the-round, BROKEN WINGS takes us on an unmissable musical voyage that is “pleasingly evocative of an old Beirut” (The Stage). Over a century later, and the themes and debates raised in Gibran’s story remain increasingly relevant today; exploring issues of gender equality, immigration, the freedom to love who we love, and what ‘home’ really means to us.

Get swept away in the magic of this epic, poignant, and romantic musical which “lingers long in the heart and mind” (WhatsOnStage) and book your BROKEN WINGS theatre tickets with LOVEtheatre now!
