LOVE STORY 爱情故事 2017 - Interview with Director, Pun Kai Loon

LOVE STORY - THE MUSICAL
爱情故事 - 音乐剧

LOVE STORY is a musical written by Stephen Clark with music by Howard Goodall and lyrics by Stephen Clark and Goodall. It is inspired by Erich Segal’s best-selling novel and the hit movie (in the 70s) of the same name. Dama Asia Productions is now bringing this celebrated musical which was nominated for three Laurence Olivier awards – including the Best New Musical – to the Malaysian shore.

The musical tells of Oliver Barrett IV, a rich young man, who falls in love with Jennifer Cavilleri, a poor music student. They marry against his family’s wishes and struggle to build their life together despite being disowned by Oliver’s wealthy father. But then fate has other plans.
