Fresh from our sellout production of Sunshine on Leith, AOC Productions were delighted to return to HMT with Chess from Wednesday 28th June to Saturday 1st July.
A sensational musical with lyrics by Tim Rice and music by Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson, formerly of ABBA, this award winning show featured hit songs such as “I Know Him So Well”, “One Night in Bangkok”, “Anthem” and “Pity the Child”
A powerful love story set amid the tensions of a world champion chess match, the Cold War and a frenzied media circus. Two world class chess players, an American and a Russian, fight for supremacy both on the chess board and for the love of the same woman. From Bangkok to Budapest, the players, lovers, politicians and spies all struggle to get the upper-hand.
“Everybody’s playing the game but nobody’s rules are the same. Nobody’s on nobody’s side”
Music by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus
Lyrics by Tim Rice
Based on an idea by Tim Rice
This amateur production of “Chess (UK Version)” was presented by special arrangement with SAMUEL FRENCH Ltd.
