Synopsis

Ever After Productions is delighted to be returning to The Abbey Theatre in September 2023.

From the romantic streets and canals of Venice, comes the exquisite and captivating story of Nine the Musical. The spotlight is on famed Italian film director, Guido Contini, who is suffering from debilitating writer’s block, while facing a marriage breakdown in the middle of having a mid-life crisis. At the age of 40, Guido must call on the nine closest and most powerful women in his life to put him back on the road to success and happiness.

Based on Federico Fellini’s Academy Award winning semi-autobigraphical film ‘8 1/2’, the musical opened on Broadway in 1989, winning five Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Nine celebrates our mothers, our sisters, our teachers, our wives, our mistresses, our muses. Our women, our world.

Directed by Dom O’Hanlon and Musical Director Emma Fraser, Ever After is thrilled to bring its first full-scale musical to The Abbey Theatre, St Albans, this September.
