When tickets went on sale in September the show set a new record for the largest single day of sales in West End and Broadway history – £4,402,371 – of which £1.2 million was from a single ticket agency.
The musical, written by Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schonberg and reworked by Sir Cameron Mackintosh, is based on Puccini’s opera Madame Butterfly.
It tells the tale of an ill-fated romance between an American GI and a young Vietnamese woman during the Vietnam War and features Eva Noblezada as Kim and Kwang Ho Hon as Thuy (left).
The show, directed by Laurence Connor, has a new song, Maybe, sung by the character Ellen, played by Tamsin Carroll.
