King Kong Goes To Oz

Theatre content from Live Design Magazine: King Kong, a new musical that opened last month in Melbourne, Australia at the Regent Theatre, may have a Broadway run in its future, according to The New York Times. The creative team for the Australian production comprises production designer Peter England, creature designer Sonny Tilders, costume designer Roger Kirk, lighting designer Peter Mumford, sound designer Peter Hylenski, projection designer Frieder Weiss, aerial and circus director Gavin Robins, and puppetry director Peter Wilson.

I can't believe that King Kong might go to Broadway! They are using all the newest and coolest technology to produce this show! I was slightly confused on how big King Kong will actually be and if they are using his whole body or not. I feel like this could be as complex as Spiderman in terms of how large King Kong will be and it physically being a huge new show. I would love to see this show, not only because it is King Kong, but also because of the puppetry, automation, and moving lights.
