  |
Based on Anne Rice's novels 'Interview with the Vampire' and 'The Vampire Lestat'. Lestat "is the lush and rich story of a man who escapes the tyranny of his oppressive family only to have his life taken from him. Thrust into the seductive and sensual world of an immortal vampire, Lestat tries to reconcile his innate sense of good with his primal need to exist." The score of the show is written in a traditional musical theatre style with some pop influence.
Lestat closed on Broadway after only 39 performances. |
