Titanic, The Musical

This was my first visit on board Titanic and despite the tragic outcome in the final hours of her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York on 14th April 1912, this production provided a stirring tribute to those who sailed on the ill-fated ship of dreams.  Based on the stories of actual passengers who boarded the most legendary ship in the world, the company brilliantly portrayed the personal ambitions of those seeking a better life in America, innocently unaware of the catastrophic disaster awaiting them.  This was a wonderfully atmospheric production displaying excitement, emotion and sentiment.  The show was well costumed with all passengers dressed according to their social class.  In recognition of the quality of the production, it would be unfair to single out any one performer as all on stage had an important part in portraying their experience.  Vocal performances of principals were first class and were tremendously supported by the entire cast throughout.  I congratulate Fraser Morrison for his creative stage design and direction, Ian Monteith-Mathie for his musical direction and Kirstin Stewart for choreography who all collectively influenced and attained the best from the entire cast.  Well done!
