From Here To Eternity - The Musical will receive its world premiere later this year at the Shaftsbury Theatre. Adapted from one of the greatest novels of the 20th Century, with lyrics by Tim Rice, this gripping tale of illicit love and arm life is a breath-taking, romantic and excitingly original new show (and breathe).
Today the musical has announced details of an exclusive priority sale. From 2nd April, if you Like and Follow From Here To Eternity's Facebook and Twitter pages you will be able to purchase tickets, 48 hours before they go on general release.
The production will open on 23rd October 2013 (previews from 30th September). From Here to Eternity is set on the Hawaiian island of Oahu in 1941, before and during the attack on Pearl Harbor. Loosely based on Jones' own wartime experiences, the story follows several members of a military company, including Captain Dana “Dynamite” Holmes and First Sergeant Milt Warden, who begins an affair with Holmes' wife Karen.
Published in 1951, From Here to Eternity was James Jones’ debut novel and won him the National Book Award for fiction. It spawned the Oscar-winning 1953 film starring Burt Lancaster, Montgomery Clift, Deborah Kerr, Donna Reed and Frank Sinatra, as well as a subsequent TV mini-series.
