From Talking Heads frontman and songwriter of “Burning Down the House,” David Byrne; the beat master of “Praise You,” DJ Fatboy Slim; and Tony-winning director of Moulin Rouge! The Musical, Alex Timbers comes Here Lies Love, the “sensational, one-of-a-kind musical like no Broadway show ever” (Time Out New York).

The Broadway Theatre underwent an “astonishing transformation” (The New York Times) into Club Millennium. Whether you sat in traditional seats or moved on the dance floor, Here Lies Love is “the most entertaining new show” (ABC7) and “an experience the likes of which Broadway has rarely if ever seen” (Variety).

With a 15-year journey from concept album to Off-Broadway hit to Broadway Musical, Here Lies Love captures the seduction and corruption of power set in one of the United States’ closest allies, the Philippines. As Imelda Marcos (Arielle Jacobs) goes from living in a shack to drinking Champagne with her husband Ferdiand (Jose Llana) and the world's greatest leaders and influencers, the two are determined to hold on to power despite the corruption opposed by their political rival, Ninoy Aquino (Conrad Ricamora).
