Miss Saigon
A story of love, war, survival, and the human cost of being caught between countries, histories, and promises.
A story of love, war, survival, and the human cost of being caught between countries, histories, and promises.
Miss Saigon is an epic musical about love and survival during the final days of the Vietnam War, and the lives changed forever by displacement, abandonment, and sacrifice.
Brian first directed the production at La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts, where it set new box-office records and received four Ovation nominations, including Best Revival of a Musical. It subsequently played the Fox Performing Arts Center in Riverside before being presented at the Macau International Music Festival, becoming the first production of Miss Saigon performed in China. His staging focused the scale and spectacle of the musical through the intimate human cost of war.
