Lestat

Lestat at Palace Theater

Why see Lestat?

LESTAT, one of Anne Rice's most celebrated literary characters, is being brought to the stage by the illustrious team of Sir Elton John (music) and Bernie Taupin (lyrics) in their first-ever collaboration on a Broadway production.

LESTAT is the lush and rich story of a man who escapes the tyranny of his oppressive family only to have his life taken from him. Thrust into the seductive and sensual world of an immortal vampire, Lestat tries to reconcile his innate sense of good with his primal need to exist.

Based on characters and incidents from Ms. Rice's best-selling novels, "Interview with the Vampire" and "The Vampire Lestat," the musical’s book is by Linda Woolverton and Robert Jess Roth will direct.

Not nearly as terrible as they thought

This show was not nearly as bad as everyone says it is. At it's worst, it's somewhat banal, just like everything else on Broadway these days. At it's best, it's darkly fun! I left the theater with a smile on my face, as did my fellow audience members. The music still plays in my head and it is delightfully beautiful. Beautiful sets, songs, actors, costumes. Just superb. However, if you are a stickler for the books, I don't recommend it. But if you have an open mind, you'll enjoy the play so much and leave saying "I Want More!" ... Read more
