Chess, March 2008

In the Theatre

Featuring the hit songs “I Know Him So Well” and “One Night In Bangkok”, the game of chess has suddenly become trendy! as the young American contender adds a bit of excitement to the otherwise dull and un-newsworthy International Chess Championships his second, a young English-women, falls in love with the Russian Grand Master. Behind the scenes the politicians try to manipulate the championships for their own political gain, using the central characters like pawns in a game of chess.

With Lyrics by Time Rice, Chess features a lush, romantic score written by the male members of ABBA shortly after the break up of the group. The music has been described as nothing short of breathtaking.
