Come January\, you will get a chance to catch the original English-language production of the CATS Musical in Basel. \n\n\n\nThe musical is set on a full moon night in a London junkyard. Once a year\, this is where the Jellicle cats meet for a ball. And so\, little by little\, the junkyard becomes alive with cats of all types. \n\n\n\nEach cat has a colorful personality\, such as the brave Munkustrap and the forgiveness-seeking Grizabella. Everyone is fighting for the attention of one particular cat: the magical Mr. Mistoffelees. \n\n\n\nHere's a fun fact: the songs in the CATS musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber are based on the 1939 poetry collection Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats by T. S. Eliot. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you ready to meet the felines of the CATS Musical in Basel? 🌕🐈\n\n\n\nElectrifying dancing\, beautiful costumes\, and elaborate stage decorations are just some of the reasons for this musical's long-lasting popularity. \n\n\n\nThe CATS Musical was initially released in London's West End in May 1981. One of the chief reasons it is still being performed globally is the memorable soundtrack by Andrew Lloyd Webber (no pun intended!) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCATS is a splendid musical suitable for all ages\n\n\n\nCATS beguiles adults and children alike\, whisking audiences away to the enigmatic realm of the Jellicle Cats. The mélange of felines embody some typical human traits - from ravishing Rum Tum Tugger to lewd Macavity and heavenly Victoria. \n\n\n\nThe musical has been performed in over 30 countries to an audience of more than 73 million. By the time Grizabella hits the stage to pour her life's emotions into "Memory\," you will see why this is a timeless classic. \n\n\n\nMore information and tickets URL:https://www.newlyswissed.com/event/cats-musical-in-basel/ LOCATION:Musical Theater Basel\, Feldbergstrasse 151\, Basel\, BS\, 4057\, Switzerland CATEGORIES:Concert/Dance/Musical ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.newlyswissed.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/CATS-Musical-in-Zurich-10_Feature.jpg GEO:47.568043;7.5979813 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Musical Theater Basel Feldbergstrasse 151 Basel BS 4057 Switzerland;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Feldbergstrasse 151:geo:7.5979813,47.568043 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20220119T000000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20220206T235959 DTSTAMP:20260416T061056 CREATED:20220128T071653Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220128T071656Z UID:112479-1642550400-1644191999@www.newlyswissed.com SUMMARY:Footloose - The Musical is on the loose in Zürich DESCRIPTION:Everybody cut loose! Straight from London's West End\, we get to see a new production of Footloose - The Musical. \n\n\n\nThe immensely successful dance film is even more popular as a musical. Audiences near and far can't have enough of the story about a dance-loving teenager. When Ren MacCormack moves from Chicago to a small town\, he suddenly faces a new reality: loud music and public dancing are banned for minors. By way of throwing a giant party\, the protagonist thinks he has found a loophole in the system... It's teenage rebellion to the max! \n\n\n\nWhen Footloose (the film) was released in 1984\, it became an instant blockbuster. For months\, the songs dominated the airwaves and charts. And they are still popular today: "Holding Out for a Hero\," "Almost Paradise\," "Let's Hear It for the Boy." And\, of course\, "Footloose!" \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFootloose - The Musical at MAAG Halle in Zürich\n\n\n\nThe dancers and musical crew of the current production are simply amazing. Each dancer actually plays an instrument\, too\, therefore becoming a part of the band. The hairdos and props add to the atmosphere\, which is a sort of time tunnel into the 1980s. \n\n\n\nCopyright Footloose Musical/Matt Martin\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFootloose - The Musical is entirely held in English\, making it a perfect opportunity to go back to a live event.

This summer\, she will be singing and dancing her way across an open-air stage in Switzerland. \nFor the first time\, this French folk tale has been turned into a musical with German dialogue and lyrics. The protagonist\, Belle\, is once again held captive in a castle by a beast. But thanks to her bright mind and courageous nature\, she manages to see past the beast's appearance and make friends with those who live in the castle. In short\, she sees the beast for who he truly is. \nExpect a dynamic musical with dance scenes and extravagant couture. Ad for us\, we are very excited to see how this age old love story has been adopted for the Walensee stage... That's because the Walensee offers a spectacular setting for an open-air musical. \nWith the stage being located at one end of the lake\, it faces the sunset at the other end. We have visited several musicals there before and have always treasured the experience. (A few years ago\, we got soaked during a musical\, though. But in the meantime\, all the seats are covered by an enormous rooftop!) \nDoors open at 6 PM and the musical begins at 7:45 PM. Please note that the dialogue and songs are entirely in German.

But can you imagine what it would feel like to see the King of Pop come alive on stage? It will be a knock-out... \nRemember the time when MJ was "Bad"\, or even the days of Jackson Five's "ABC" song? How about that freaky graveyard scene from "Thriller"? For a privileged select of us\, these memories are about to come alive as the ultimate Michael Jackson musical stops in Zürich! After Beijing\, Capetown\, Singapore and Vienna\, Billie Jean and many other hits will be performed live on stage at Theater 11. \n \nAccording to some online reviews\, THRILLER Live is more of a tribute concert than a musical with a story line. But whether it is Black or White: This show has not skipped a beat in over five years when it emerged from London's West End theater district! \nThe producers and millions of fans confirm that THRILLER - Live is no Smooth Criminal: Rather than a run-of-the-mill imitation\, it is a true homage to Michael Jackson! Performances are in English and last for approximately 2:20 hrs.

The carefully thought-out choreography of CATS\, the sheer wonder of human body’s limberness\, costumes and stage decorations of the musical might convince you otherwise (at least for the night). \n \nWhether you have seen CATS or you are a newcomer to the world of musicals\, the two hour long show will leave you full of energy and remain humming the catchy tunes also a few days after. \nCATS on water\nIf there is anything that gives you goose bumps\, that would be listening to Grizabella sing "Memory" with the daylight slowly fading away\, the surrounding mountains gaining more of a dramatic appearance\, and far village lights flickering on the surface of the lake. \nThe up to 18 meter high stage is entirely built on water and offers staggering views over the Bernese Oberland belonging to the UNESCO World Heritage. Talking about a unique setting! \nThe language used in the musical is German. \nSpecial offers: \n\n10% discount on public transport tickets to and from Thun with RailAway-Kombi \nCHF 20 discount off the entry ticket with Coop Supercard\n50% discount for children under 16 years old URL:https://www.newlyswissed.com/event/open-air-cats-musical-lake-thun/ LOCATION:Thunersee CATEGORIES:Concert/Dance/Musical ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.newlyswissed.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/102_Der-Ball_CATS_Thunerseespiele_2017.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Thunerseespiele%20AG":MAILTO:info@thunerseespiele.ch GEO:46.7498355;7.6177326 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20161115 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20161127 DTSTAMP:20260416T061056 CREATED:20140208T154823Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160919T134133Z UID:22957-1479168000-1480204799@www.newlyswissed.com SUMMARY:Cirque Alfonse's TIMBER! (Zürich) DESCRIPTION:When it comes to TIMBER! by Cirque Alfonse\, expect the unexpected! \nIt's not that jugglers are completely absent from this circus\, but they might juggle with axes! This is because the show was inspired by the lumberjack culture of Quebec\, Canada. In fact\, the idea for TIMBER! originated on a farm in remote Saint-Alphonse-Rodriguez in 2010. \nFor their father's birthday\, Antoine and his sister Julie came up with a circus spectacle inspired by the tools and forestry resources they had available. Thanks to the community which loved the show so much\, all of us now get to watch TIMBER! \nWhen lumberjacks try circus you get TIMBER!\nThere is a cool Newly Swissed connection\, too! The father\, Alain Carabinier\, originally grew up in Geneva. An adventurer at heart\, he toured the world by bus\, horse\, and sailboat before he finally settled in Canada. \n \nYou can still feel that adventurous spirit in his offsprings' show that is TIMBER! It is a spectacle where traditional folk music\, risky aerial acrobatics\, and daredevil tricks (some involving saws!) are combined in an authentic\, backcountry way. And if you find time to breathe\, you might even smell the fresh-cut pine logs and the sweat of lumberjacks! \nTIMBER! is a fast\, unconventional and thus unforgettable show which Zürich has never seen before! \n  URL:https://www.newlyswissed.com/event/cirque-alfonses-timber-zurich/ LOCATION:Lichthalle MAAG\, Hardstrasse 219\, Zürich\, ZH\, 8005\, Switzerland CATEGORIES:Concert/Dance/Musical ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.newlyswissed.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/TIMBER-Show.jpg GEO:47.3857193;8.5168517 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Lichthalle MAAG Hardstrasse 219 Zürich ZH 8005 Switzerland;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Hardstrasse 219:geo:8.5168517,47.3857193 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20160810 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20160911 DTSTAMP:20260416T061056 CREATED:20160810T133425Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180611T053107Z UID:38782-1470787200-1473551999@www.newlyswissed.com SUMMARY:TITANIC The Musical (Melide) DESCRIPTION:Last summer\, the open-air musical enchanted over 42'000 people on Walensee - including dozens who read here about it. \nAnd now\, the story of the legendary ocean-liner is ready to conquer Ticino!

The reviews swarm that these three are so great that you would swear that you're really seeing Sinatra\, Martin and Davis themselves. \n  \nDiscount Tickets\nWe have a special 20% rebate code for our readers.

This year\, the Walensee stage is continuing its tradition and has commissioned yet another blockbuster musical: MY FAIR LADY. \nThis world famous musical will be performed from July 16 to August 23\, 2014. According to the organizers and some audience feedback after the premiere\, the new interpretation of MY FAIR LADY invites spectators to dream. \nFor those who did not know: The story of MY FAIR LADY revolves around poor London flower girl Eliza Doolittle (who might just turn into a princess). In one of the most famous performance\, Audrey Hepburn won eight Academy Awards for her role as Eliza. And did we mention that it is a love story par excellence\, filled with humor\, charme and pure emotions? \nWe hope that you will decide to spend one of those beautiful summer nights at the shore of Walensee to become part of the MY FAIR LADY experience! \n(Photographs copyright by swiss-image.ch) URL:https://www.newlyswissed.com/event/fair-lady-musical-walenstadt/ LOCATION:Walenseebühne\, Walenstadt\, 8880\, Switzerland CATEGORIES:Concert/Dance/Musical ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.newlyswissed.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/My-Fair-Lady-Musical.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="TSW%20Musical%20AG":MAILTO:info@walenseebuehne.ch GEO:47.124147;9.3126861 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
