Nicolas Renna, Chief Executive Officer at Proactiv Entertainment, which partnered with the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi and Miral to bring the show to the UAE, said in a statement: “We are beyond thrilled to bring to Abu Dhabi such a unique play after its international success in the West End and Broadway. The production represents the pinnacle of theatrical excellence, combining innovative stagecraft with a deeply moving story that audiences know and adore. Many people may have read the book or watched the movie – but experiencing this epic tale live on stage is something you do not want to miss out on.”
