Here Lies Love
Manage episode 397284567 series 2515179
In our first episode of the season, we’re talking about the Fabulous One…or is she? Imelda Marcos may be just a Pretty Face, but Here Lies Love takes a look at how she rose to power and why she might’ve considered herself the "Star and Slave" of the Philippines.

Check out how the Broadway Theatre was transformed for Here Lies Love, as explained by set designer David Korins and take a look at some of the behind the scenes action where the ensemble has to run all the way around the stage area while doing a quick change
The other major immersive musical happening right now is Guys and Dolls over in London, which involves a similar standing room dance floor concept
The original concept album is quite different from the show that made it to stage, and thanks to the Wayback Machine, we can see the original descriptions for each of the songs from David Byrne’s website
Want to know more about the background of the show and context for the current songs? Take a look at the New York Theatre Guide article that Cindy mentioned
Imelda Marcos was famously known for her many pairs of shoes, supposedly around 3,000 (and not 300 like Christine said), and in case you want to know what happened to them, Vice has you covered
Hear from the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist that wrote about the Marcoses and his experience at Here Lies Love
