A Concert Production

Winner of five Tony Awards, Titanic: The Musical is a sweeping and deeply moving portrait of the passengers, crew and officers aboard the legendary “Ship of Dreams” on its ill-fated maiden voyage. Drawing on the true stories of those who sailed – from Third-Class immigrants hoping for a new life, to ambitious Second-Class travelers, to the wealthy elite of First Class – the musical celebrates their hopes, dreams and humanity before tragedy strikes. Featuring a soaring score by Maury Yeston and a powerful book by Peter Stone, Titanic explores not only one of history’s most devastating maritime disasters, but also the questions it raised about progress, privilege and the human cost of ambition.

This concert production not only features one of the largest ensembles ever in a UCI Drama show. We are also building bridges into the community by partnering with Beckman High School String Orchestra, under the music direction of Jim Kollias, to present one of our largest orchestras ever. We can do more together.
