| 説明 | An Officer and a Gentleman The Musical To Play Sydney Lyric Theatre, The StarTonight of An Officer and a Gentleman enjoyed its Sydney, Australia premiere at The Star's Lyric Theatre at Ultimo.The red carpet premiere was well attended by media and celebrities, and its understood the production is likely to match if not exceed the hype.Producer John Frost said that more hard-won world premieres were in store."Not just Australian stories, but international stories that can be exported to international markets," Frost said.Producers from Germany, South Korea, Canada, New York and London were at tonight's opening.Frost said the $6 million budget for An Officer And A Gentleman was about half what it might have been if it was developed in New York or London."Things are just easier and cheaper here, and in New York and London, you're so far out of town (doing the set building) trying to get it right and get it fixed," he said.Frost said the process of developing new musicals, as opposed to simply remounting a successful overseas version, would help build production skills for the creation of new musicals in the future."What this is doing is establishing people like (An Officer And A Gentleman) director Simon Phillips, his choreographer and his assistants, to do new stuff they're not used to doing, because they are used to doing stuff that's already been done and what we are trying to do is to broaden that experience so a lot more directors and a lot more writers get that opportunity," Frost added.Later next year and early 2014 Frost expects to mount world premieres of Dream Lover: The Bobby Darin Show and Red Dog. His production of Doctor Zhivago is approaching the end of a six month-long run in Seoul and will then be mounted in New York.The Media Man and Music News Australia agencies were overheard agreeing "Another world class production put on by The Star and Lyric Theatre".The pitch:A new musical based on the Paramount Pictures-Lorimar movie "An Officer and a Gentleman" written by Douglas Day StewartMusic and lyrics by Ken Hirsch and Robin LernerBook by Douglas Day Stewart and Sharleen Cooper CohenDirector Simon PhillipsChoreographer Andrew HallsworthSet and Costume Designer Dale FergusonLighting Designer Matt ScottMusical Director Dave SkeltonAssociate Director Dean BryantProducers Sharleen Cooper Cohen and John FrostIn association with Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros Theatre VenturesBased on the hugely successful Academy Award-winning film, this new production has been adapted for the stage by the original screen writer, Douglas Day Stewart and co-writer Sharleen Cooper Cohen, with music and lyrics by Kenny Hirsch and Robin Lerner.
