What is it about?

In the last days of the Vietnam War, 17-year-old Kim is forced to work in a Saigon bar run by a notorious character known as The Engineer. There, she meets and falls in love with an American GI named Chris, but they are torn apart by the fall of Saigon. For 3 years, Kim goes on an epic journey of survival to find her way back to Chris, who has no idea he’s fathered a son.

Miss Saigon features the hit songs The Heat is On in Saigon, The Movie in My Mind, Last Night of the World and The American Dream.

Since its London premiere in 1989, Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg’s epic musical MISS SAIGON has become one of the most successful musicals in history.

The 25th Anniversary Gala Performance (which took place in 2016 when the show last played in London) featured appearances by the original cast, including Jonathan Pryce and Lea Salonga and was filmed for television and cinema.
