With a very old start in the year 1935, Porgy and Bess is a musical that is different from many others out there and is an opera that has the style to do justice to the African-American culture. Based on the book Porgy by the author Dubose Heyward, the musical has his words too while it plays the tunes of the favmous George Gershwin.

Even though Porgy and Bess tickets to its first show were sold in back in 1935, it wasn't until the later part of the 70's that the opera was truly appreciated for its greatness at the Houston Grand Opera. This is the reason the opera took the shape of a fantastic musical that soon earned fame throughout.  The very first show took place in the Savoy Theatre of London.

Speaking of more recent times, in the year 2006, the direction was carried out by Trevor Nunn. But after its initial success that followed the Houston Grand Opera show, very few know that the musical toured extensively through various theatres of the world. These in include some great venues such as Radio City Music Hall, Nashville Symphony Orchestra, The Metropolitan Opera, New York City Opera, Royal Festival Hall, Welsh National Opera and Deutsche Opera Berlin.

The main characters that entertain on stage are Porgy, Crown, Bess and Sportin' Life. These lead roles are accompanied by just as interesting roles that include characters Robbins, Jake, Serena, Clara, Peter, Maria, Lily, Scorpio, Frazier and Mr. Archdale.

The musical consists of three acts all of which never fail to entertain the audiences. The entire story revolves around Porgy who is a black beggar and the other lead character Bess. Porgy makes efforts to rescue Bess from her wicked lover called Crown.

Gershwin worked to make the music of Porgy and Bess as unique and interesting as possible; a creative mix of European Opera, American Jazz and folk tunes. The songs that make the musical fantastic are I Loves You, Porgy, My Man's Gone Now, Bess, Oh Where's My Bess, Clara Don't You Be Downhearted, There's a Boat That's Leaving Soon for New York, Oh the Lord Shake the Heaven, Summertime and It Aint Necessarily So. It is also because of this fusion that the masses have always and still get very attracted towards Porgy and Bess tickets.

The story takes place in the area of Charleston in South Carolina. The place is in one of the slums there. Catfish Row is a fictional part of that region and is where an important scene takes place. This is where the handicapped beggar Porgy saves Bess from her evil lover Crown. This gives rise to another love story that is an extremely exhilarating one.

With Act 1 starting with the great song Summertime, to know where the story moves forward and to experience all the thrilling twists and turns, you will have to arrange some passes to the show. With mixed criticisms that included some comments regarding discrimination, Porgy and Bess is a musical that still shines and entertains many.

People who have been part of the Porgy and Bess experience love the fantastic dancing and acting accompanied by great music. Audiences love the high energy and enthusiasm that becomes a part of the entire atmosphere. The cast bursts out with exceptional talent and is perfect at portraying the story. One favorite moment that most people love about the show is when the convincing transport to Catfish Row takes place. This again is all due to the expertise of the cast involved and the sets of course.

With great costumes, a spectacular cast including Tony Award Winners too and folk fusion music, Porgy and Bess is a musical not to miss. This legendary show still runs for its greatness and you, your family and friends too could be a part of the wonderful experience.
