Last chance: Miss Saigon, until 27 March

Miss Saigon is a moving musical with powerful music. The powerful story takes us to Saigon during the Vietnam War in the 1970s. Here we witness the forbidden love between American soldier Chris and orphaned Vietnamese woman Kim who is forced to work in the bar at the Dreamland brothel. Chris and Kim’s fates intertwine in a way that challenges the boundaries of love and confronts the brutal reality of war. The chaos of war leads to heartbreaking drama in a story that is always relevant.
