"Titanic" - the musical - is coming to Liverpool, England!! Liverpool, the registered home of the Titanic. The show will be presented by WKLOS at the Liverpool Empire theatre from 8th - 11th June 2005. "Titanic" was the winner of 5 Tony awards, including the best musical of the year in 1997. It has only recently been made available for performance in the UK and has made a really great and moving impression in those small theatres where it has already been perfomed. The performance in June 2005 by WKLOS will be the first in a major UK theatre.
(The Liverpool Empire is the largest UK theatre outside London). This will be its Liverpool premiere. A cast of 100 will tell the moving story. The star of the show is the Titanic herself.

Titanic has many connections with Liverpool. Not only was the ship registered in Liverpool, but the Offices of the White Star Line were situated there and from the first floor window, the news of the terrible tragedy was announced. Livepool has a permanent Titanic Exhibition in its Maritime Museum. Both Bruce Ismay and Captain Edward Smith had very close Liverpool connections.
