Rocky the Musical
''Rocky the Musical'' (originally ''Rocky: Das Musical'') is a 2012 musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, with a book by Thomas Meehan, adapted from a screenplay by Sylvester Stallone. The show held its world premiere in Hamburg in 2012 and opened on Broadway in 2014 at the Winter Garden Theatre. The show roughly follows the plot of the 1976 film ''Rocky''.
==Background==
The musical is based on the 1976 film ''Rocky'', with a screenplay by Sylvester Stallone. The film itself was made on a budget of $1,075,000, shot in 28 days and was a sleeper hit, earning $225 million in global box office receipts becoming the highest grossing film of 1976 and went on to win three Oscars, including Best Picture. Having been in the works for eight years, a workshop was held in New York in April 2011, with Andy Karl playing Rocky and Lisa Brescia playing Adrian. Following the reading it was officially confirmed in November by producer Sylvester Stallone alongside boxers and co-producers Vitali and Wladimir Klitschko, that the show would receive its world premiere in Hamburg in November 2012.
The musical, which premiere production cost around $20 million to produce, has a book by Thomas Meehan, adapted from Stallone's screenplay and is directed by Alex Timbers, with choreography by Kelly Devine, boxing choreography by Steven Hoggett, set design by Christopher Barreca, costume design by David Zinn,〔 lighting design by Christopher Akerlind,〔 sound design by Peter Hylenski,〔 video design by Pablo N. Molina〔 and special effects by Jeremy Chernick.〔 A mostly original score has been penned, by Lynn Ahrens with music by Stephen Flaherty.
The show's set, which for Broadway cost $4.3 million, is set around a mostly bare stage which represents the Gym that Rocky trains in.〔 The production uses sliding box like sets to represent the homes of the characters〔 and the sliding element goes onto include a full sized regulation boxing ring. Audience members seated within the front stalls Golden Circle seating section, are escorted onto the stage for the final 20 minutes to sit on bleacher style seats,〔 in doing so this allows the boxing ring to enter the auditorium〔 and sit in rows A-F,〔 bringing the audience close to the final fight scene.
