An American in Paris

The ravishing musical, An American in Paris, lights up the stage at Lyric Theatre, QPAC from January 8-30, 2022, with its keenly-awaited Australian premiere.

URGENT UPDATE: Due to some company members testing positive to COVID, all performances have been suspended from Tuesday January 11 and will resume on Sunday January 16, with the season now extended to January 30.

Hailed as a tour de force for its inventive choreography, the four-time Tony Award®-winning Broadway musical tells the entrancing story of a young American soldier and a beautiful French girl, set against the iconic backdrop of the most romantic city in the world.

This rhapsodic combination of classic score, timeless love story, exuberant dance and sumptuous design has captivated audiences and critics alike, with The Wall Street Journal declaring it “a masterpiece!”
