River Raisin Centre for the Arts Summer Youth Theater Presents: AIDA
A Timeless Love Story with Unforgettable Music by Elton John and Tim Rice Based on the Verdi opera, Aida is a musical bursting with contemporary energy that tells the story of a great Egyptian hero Radames, who sends a captured Nubian princess, Aida, as a gift to the Egyptian princess Amneris. As he prepares to marry
the vain and shallow Amneris, he falls completely in love with Aida, and is forced to choose between love and life. Aida is an epic tale of love, loyalty, betrayal, and courage, with an exhilarating Tony and Grammy Award-winning score by Elton John and Tim Rice, their first collaboration since writing the music for The Lion King. Aida is a true celebration of love and life. Time Magazine proclaims Aida “A big, bright show with luscious Elton John melodies.”
