A Tale of Two Cities on Broadway

A Tale of Two Cities is based on the 1859 novel by Charles Dickens and covers the historical era of the years before the French revolution as well as first several years of the revolution. It is a story about how oppression caused by the aristocracy of the country led to revolution only to be followed by retaliation once the uprising gained ground. Charles Darnay is a former French aristocrat living in England who ultimately returns to the revolution-torn country after getting a plea to save Gabelle. Sydney Carton is an Englishman who early on in the book successfully defends Darnay against an accusation of treason. He grows to despair the life of drinking he has led, and early on grows enamored with Lucie Manette, who is romantically involved with Darnay. This tale of life and death situations during a time of great national turmoil combined with the personal struggles found by the individual characters is well known to readers of Dickens, and it can now be known to you on stage.

• "A Tale of Two Cities" is, to use one of its signature songs, a "Dream Come True" - New York Theatre Guide
• "The action is vigorous and emotionally affecting." - The Times Herald-Record
• "Charles Dickens was a master magician whose greatest feat was the grand illusion created in the pages of A Tale Of Two Cities, and Jill Santoriello's musical has not only recreated that sleight-of-hand, it is guilty of a far less obvious magic: to take a classic novel, long buried under scholarship and praise, and recall it to life." - NYC.com
