Amélie - Il Musical in Bologna

This musical adaptation of the 2001 romantic comedy film features music by Daniel Messé, lyrics by Messé and Nathan Tysen, and a book by Craig Lucas. The show follows the whimsical story of Amélie Poulain, with imaginative staging and a score that has earned Laurence Olivier Award nominations for Best New Musical and Best Original Score.

The production has evolved since its Broadway premiere, with a reworked version praised for its actor-muso style and expanded repertoire. Critics have described it as "a triumph of adaptation" and "high on imagination," offering a "wonderful, wistful evening."

This performance in Bologna brings the same creative team and source material that have captivated audiences in Berkeley, Los Angeles, London, and beyond.
