Event Notes
Drink with me my love, for there's fire in the sky.
A radically contemporary adaptation of a selection of Tolstoy's acclaimed 1868 novel 'War and Peace', the 12-time Tony-nominated musical brings a passionate, romantic and high-stakes 1812 Moscow to life through a ground-breaking score that mixes indie rock, pop, Russian folk, electronic dance music and classic Broadway.
The musical had its world premiere in New York City in 2012 at Ars Nova before moving into a specially built cabaret-style space in the meatpacking district. The show moved to Broadway in 2016 at the Imperial Theatre and starred Josh Groban. It was announced just last week that the musical was available for licensing – the Toronto production will not only be the Canadian premiere but also the first international production.
