Based on the hit film, Pretty Women is a modern Cinderella story. A businessman hires an escort to spend the weekend with him, but before long, the two learn that their connection goes beyond a simple transaction. The romantic comedy film was adapted to the stage with a book by Garry Marshall and the film’s screenwriter J.F. Lawton. It also features original music and lyrics by Grammy Award winner Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance, and Roy Orbison and Bill Dee’s hit song "Oh, Pretty Woman" which inspired the film.
For the tour, music director Mary Grace Ellerbee leads a band that includes Matt McGrath (keyboards), Callum Murphy (guitar), Jason Hartley (guitar), Evan Zegiel (bass), and Joel Anderson (drums).
The production features scenic design by David Rockwell, tour scenic design by Christine Peters, costumes by Gregg Barnes, lighting design by Kenneth Posner and Philip S. Rosenberg, sound design by John Shivers, hair design by Josh Marquette, makeup design by Fiona Mifsud, and music supervision, arrangements and orchestrations by Will Van Dyke. Pretty Woman is produced on tour by Crossroads Live North America and is booked by The Booking Group. This production is licensed by Music Theatre International.
