The story follows Christian\, a young writer who falls in love with Satine\, the star of the Moulin Rouge\, amidst the backdrop of the Montmartre district of Paris in the late 19th century. \n\n\n\nWith ten Tony Awards\, Moulin Rouge The Musical has sold out many times the world over! \n\n\n\nNow\, as it makes its Swiss debut\, Zurich’s Theater 11 becomes the hottest ticket in town\, promising to unite internationals from all walks of life in a shared experience of music\, drama\, and sheer extravaganza. \n\n\n\nIn short: It will make anyone who’s not at Theater 11 feel the FOMO! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSince its release\, Moulin Rouge! has had a significant impact on pop culture. (Note the exclamation mark in the official name!) It has popularized the concept of mashup music\, blending classics and modern hits. This approach has since inspired a wave of other musicals and movies. \n\n\n\nDon’t miss this opportunity to experience the magic of Moulin Rouge The Musical in Zurich.

And as with most musicals\, the front of the mezzanine/balcony section offers excellent views to appreciate the choreography. \n \n \n \n \n \n What is the recommended age for the show?The musical is recommended for audiences aged 12 and older. This is due to the mature themes and some suggestive content\, which may not be suitable for younger children. \n \n \n \n \n \n Are there any language concerns? Is it all in French?No worries! Moulin Rouge The Musical is entirely in English. But even for non-native English speakers\, the storyline is easy to follow and the music is universal. So\, regardless of your language proficiency\, the visual storytelling and iconic music allows you to sit back and follow along… \n \n \n \n \n \n What time should I arrive at Theater 11?We always recommend arriving at Theater 11 a bit early to enjoy the pre-show atmosphere. Take a moment to appreciate the venue and mingle with fellow attendees. Some may even be dressed to the occasion! \n \n \n \n \n \n Will there be a dress code?No\, there’s no strict dress code for Moulin Rouge. But we can imagine that more than a few people will dress up\, adding to the excitement of the evening. So\, feel free to dress in a way that makes you feel special and part of the occasion.

This will be the first time for the current production of THE KING AND I to stop in Switzerland. \nWhat you need to know about the musical THE KING AND I\nThe story takes place in Bangkok around 1860. Anna\, a British teacher\, arrives in Bangkok during these imperialistic times. She will be visiting the court of the King of Siam in order to teach his highness and the 67 children in modernist ways. But with her brave and strong-willed nature\, she turns the royal court upside down. Without giving anything away\, there will be tragedy and romance… \nThe musical is based on the novel Anna and the King of Siam. It first appeared on Broadway in 1951. One year later\, it was a hit at the box office\, winning a Tony Award for “Best Musical”. \nBut its revival has been critically acclaimed as well. In 1996 and 2015\, THE KING AND I has won Tony Awards for “Best Revival”. And finally\, you might remember the 1999 movie adaptation starring Jodie Foster. \nThis is the fifth musical by the Rodgers and Hammerstein team. The two have drummed up a large orchestra and 50 outstanding artists. I am very much looking forward to hearing the live performances of songs such as Shall We Dance\, Getting To Know You\, or Whistle A Happy Tune. \nAbout the original UK cast\nThe cast for this musical includes Kok-Hwa Liein in the role of Kralahome\, and Aaron Teoh as Prince Chulalongkorn. William M Lee will play Phra Alak\, and Edward Baker Duly will take on dual roles of Orton and Ramsay. \nAmong the male ensemble are Steven Hardcastle\, Prem Rai\, Joaquin Pedro Valdes\, Jesse Milligan\, Eu Jin Hwang\, and Irvine Ray Abesamis. The female ensemble includes Misa Koide\, Ela Lisondra\, Ena Yamaguchi\, Miiya Alexandra\, Yuki Abe\, and Aiko Kato. \nThis revival of THE KING AND I musical has designs by Michael Yeargan as well as light designs by Donald Holder. Scott Lehrerm provides the sound design\, and costumes were designed by Catherine Zuber. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness this spectacular musical. Unless you are planning to travel abroad\, it will never be more convenient to see it than this winter in Zürich… \nHere is what reviewers in London have said about THE KING AND I\nThe producer of the musical\, Howard Panter\, has declared that “the response from London audiences to this multi-award winning production was unexpected.” In addition\, WhatsOnStage also gave the show a four-star review saying that “It’s very hard to not to fall for the King and I\, which features some of the loveliest songs in musical theatre sung by an absolutely crack cast. The songs included in the musical were Getting to Know You\, Whistle A Happy Tune\, and Shall We Dance?” \nThe musical takes approximately 3 hours including an interval. This is the original UK version in English. It is recommended for children aged 8 years or older. \nGet your tickets at Ticketcorner \nTheater 11\nThurgauerstrasse 7\n8050 Zürich \n \n(Key visual copyright musical.ch) URL:https://www.newlyswissed.com/event/the-king-and-i-musical-zurich/ LOCATION:Theater 11 Oerlikon\, Thurgauerstrasse 7\, Zürich\, ZH\, 8050\, Switzerland CATEGORIES:Concert/Dance/Musical ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.newlyswissed.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/THE-KING-AND-I-Musical-01_feature.jpg GEO:47.4106844;8.549689 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Theater 11 Oerlikon Thurgauerstrasse 7 Zürich ZH 8050 Switzerland;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Thurgauerstrasse 7:geo:8.549689,47.4106844 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20190416T200000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20190416T220000 DTSTAMP:20260513T175944 CREATED:20190312T090551Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190319T213206Z UID:90358-1555444800-1555452000@www.newlyswissed.com SUMMARY:Peter Bence Live in Concert (Zürich) DESCRIPTION:I must admit\, I didn’t know what I was singing for when I heard about Peter Bence. \nI was expecting an evening punctuated with classical music.

The first ever musical production from Cuba will take stage in Zürich this fall. \nThe tale of Carmen La Cubana takes place on the eve of the Cuban revolution in 1958. Set in a cigar factory somewhere in the countryside\, we will be taken on a colorful journey through the night. The destination? Havanna’s lively bars and night clubs! \nWhen the Carmen opera goes Cuba…\nAlong with the involvement of Cuban actors and actresses\, singers and musicians\, the classic “Carmen” opera from the 19th century has been newly reinterpreted. \nIn this clever screenplay\, Carmen’s dream for a better life and her struggle for independence parallel the unfolding Cuban revolution. We can only imagine what happens when love\, jealousy\, salsa and revolución collide… \nWe love seeing musicals at Theater 11 because of the hall’s wonderful acoustics. A live orchestra of 14 musicians will underscore Carmen’s yearning for freedom by infusing the opera songs with Rumba or Mambo. \nCuban rhythms and passionate musical performances? Muy caliente – count us in! \nGet your tickets at Ticketcorner. The musical takes approximately 2.5 hours\, including a break.

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!

The performers use only their own bodies\, plus a variety of everyday objects such as buckets\, cans\, broomsticks and basketballs. The result of their continuous movements is mesmerizing and makes you bounce along in your chairs. \nNow\, STOMP is bringing back the rythm to Zürich with all new acts. What could their newly developed acts be all about? Zürich is about to find out when the performers try to maneuvre a full shopping cart or when they produce curiously organic soundscapes. Be aware that STOMP does not tell a story like most musical performances do. The reason is that it is not just a musical\, theater\, concert or artistic performance.

And without a doubt\, Maurice Béjart\, the late founder of the school\, would have loved the special program that Béjart Ballet has put together for the 30th anniversary. Zürich audiences will be able to enjoy three captivating ensembles by the Lausanne based ballet company. \nPiaf\, composed in 1988 by Maurice Béjart\, is a tribute to the legendary French singer Edith Piaf. The dancers in this act are exclusively male\, and they are going to perform solo or as a group to eight of Piaf’s most famous chansons. \nTombées de la dernière pluie is the story of a man who steps into the depths of his memories after the world around him has fallen apart. The male dancer is accompanied by a group of nymphean female dancers who perform to the rhythms of Schubert and the Swiss band Citypercussion. \nFinally\, Le Mandarin merveilleux was choreographed by Maurice Béjart himself in 1992. The seedy plot takes place in a ghetto during the 1920’s\, and the set is inspired by the black & white films of Béjart’s youth. \nMore information and tickets \n  URL:https://www.newlyswissed.com/event/bejart-ballet-lausanne-in-zurich/ LOCATION:Theater 11 Oerlikon\, Thurgauerstrasse 7\, Zürich\, ZH\, 8050\, Switzerland CATEGORIES:Concert/Dance/Musical GEO:47.4106844;8.549689 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Theater 11 Oerlikon Thurgauerstrasse 7 Zürich ZH 8050 Switzerland;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Thurgauerstrasse 7:geo:8.549689,47.4106844 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170201 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170320 DTSTAMP:20260513T175944 CREATED:20160909T212053Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160909T212222Z UID:39209-1485907200-1489967999@www.newlyswissed.com SUMMARY:MARY POPPINS The Musical (Zürich) DESCRIPTION:By a show of hands: Who always wanted a nanny just like Mary Poppins? \nI did\, because this fascinating character has the magical ability to make order out of chaos.

The fact that the nanny has a stronger bond to the Banks’ children than their own father might as well be a tale of the 21st century. \n\n  \nSupercalifragilisticexpialidocious\nIn any case\, if I was to ever meet Mary Poppins in real life\, I wanted to make a good impression. Call me a geek\, but I memorized this 34 letter nonsense word by heart… Now\, all these years later\, the character from my childhood is going to appear on stage to sing the supercalifragilisticexpialidocious song. What a blast! \nApart from the catchy songs and (tap) dancing\, I am excited to see the award winning choreography in MARY POPPINS The Musical. (Many reviewers around the world have praised the stage design.) So\, who else wants to re-discover this classic childhoodtalemadeintoDisneymovieandnowamusical? \nMore information\, showtimes and tickets\n  URL:https://www.newlyswissed.com/event/mary-poppins-the-musical-zurich/ LOCATION:Theater 11 Oerlikon\, Thurgauerstrasse 7\, Zürich\, ZH\, 8050\, Switzerland CATEGORIES:Concert/Dance/Musical ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.newlyswissed.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Mary-Poppins-Musical-01.jpg GEO:47.4106844;8.549689 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Theater 11 Oerlikon Thurgauerstrasse 7 Zürich ZH 8050 Switzerland;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Thurgauerstrasse 7:geo:8.549689,47.4106844 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20161108 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20161121 DTSTAMP:20260513T175944 CREATED:20160909T202756Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160909T202756Z UID:39206-1478563200-1479686399@www.newlyswissed.com SUMMARY:CHICAGO The Musical (Zürich) DESCRIPTION:For two weeks this November\, Zürich will be getting a taste of the roaring twenties. \nThat’s because CHICAGO\, one of the most successful and wildly popular musical\, is coming to town! Believe it or not\, but this musical gem has been playing on Broadway for two decades – without interruption. The story of Roxie Hart\, a feisty Vaudeville dancer\, is set in 1920’s Chicago. \n“And all that Jazz…”\nMaybe it is the protagonist\, her sidekick Velma Kelly\, the murky gangster theme or the catchy songs… This musical has left an impression on me when I saw it the first time around! So without hesitation\, I bought my ticket for this revival in Zürich. I am glad that this Tony Award winning musical will be performed in English\, because “All that Jazz” sounds so much better than “Dieser ganze Jass”… \nIt would be a sin to miss this musical\, so buy your tickets now.\n  URL:https://www.newlyswissed.com/event/chicago-the-musical-zurich/ LOCATION:Theater 11 Oerlikon\, Thurgauerstrasse 7\, Zürich\, ZH\, 8050\, Switzerland CATEGORIES:Concert/Dance/Musical ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.newlyswissed.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Chicago-The-Musical.jpg GEO:47.4106844;8.549689 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Theater 11 Oerlikon Thurgauerstrasse 7 Zürich ZH 8050 Switzerland;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Thurgauerstrasse 7:geo:8.549689,47.4106844 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20160226T193000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20160226T213000 DTSTAMP:20260513T175944 CREATED:20160209T231021Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190506T161504Z UID:36198-1456515000-1456522200@www.newlyswissed.com SUMMARY:The African Angels Concert on Tour in Zürich DESCRIPTION:After the great success of the first tour\, the African Angels are back in Switzerland. \nWith new program highlights the singers of the Cape Town Opera Chorus once again will perform at Theater 11 in Zürich. \n  \nAfrican Angels in Zürich\nWith numerous concerts from London via Paris to Melbourne\, the brilliant voices of the Cape Town Opera have gathered a global audience.
