Here Lies Love Immersive Event - Main Image

Here Lies Love is a groundbreaking musical about former Filipina First Lady Imelda Marcos’s astonishing rise to power and subsequent fall at the hands of the Philippine People Power Revolution. From the minds of David Byrne (Academy Award®, Grammy® Award, and Tony Award® winner) and Fatboy Slim (Grammy Award winner), Here Lies Love has been called “ingenious” by The New York Times and “an ecstatic and dynamic party” by Time Out New York. Choreographed by Annie-B Parson (Olivier Award nominee) and developed and directed by Alex Timbers (Tony Award winner), the theater is transformed into a dance club where the audience is immersed in the story. After sold-out, critically acclaimed runs at The Public Theater, London’s National Theatre, and Seattle Rep, Here Lies Love is now coming to Broadway. Ticket buyers can experience this revolutionary production in two ways: immersed within the show standing on the dance floor, or from an array of traditional and innovative theater-seating options.

Audience Role

Here Lies Love transforms the Broadway Theatre's floor space into a dance club environment, where some audience members will stand and move with the actors, and others will enjoy from seats located around the theatre. Four ticketing options will provide audience members with unique and immersive points of view: Floor (Standing), Floorside Seats, Front Mezzanine, and Rear Mezzanine. Click Ticketing Options to learn more! No audience member will experience the exact same show as anyone else. Each seat and spot on the Floor is designed to view the show in a unique way – whether that’s through live-action video footage or dancing nearby performers. The beauty of the show is an individual, yet collective experience.
