Angels The Musical, which was recently announced for the current 2008-2009 Broadway season, has cancelled its engagement in Shreveport, LA, it was announced today by the show's producers.
Due to technical requirements, the production will not be able to open its planned LA engagement on August 29 at The Strand Theatre.
Plans for Broadway are unaffected by this production delay.
"We are very disappointed to not be able to debut Angels in Shreveport as planned," said producer
Marcus Cheong. "Angels is a very complex production with specific needs and, of course, can only be performed when absolutely ready."
He added, "Everyone at The Strand and the wonderful people of Shreveport have been very warm and supportive, and we hope to eventually play that legendary theater."
Angels tells the extraordinary story of the ancient war between the Angels and Lucifer's fallen minions. This timeless tale of good versus evil, hope versus despair—angels vs. demons—is told through the eyes of Sera, the Angel of Light. Though she is gifted with the power to control light, she aspires to a more heroic role. Her ambition is manipulated by Lucifer, which results in tragic consequences to the Angels and the humans they protect. Sera must find the courage and power to defeat her nemesis.
