Here's a fresh, original version of the article, following the provided guidelines:
Want a taste of Broadway romance, captivating audiences from New York to Buenos Aires and Tokyo, without leaving Moscow? Well, guess what? In just a couple weeks, you'll get that chance with a one-of-a-kind live performance of a smash-hit musical comedy! And it's all thanks to Dmitry Bogachev's production team bringing the spectacular spectacle right to you, without the journey!
Even though the grand premiere of Austin Winsberg's (from the TV show "Gossip Girl") hilarious and heartfelt script, combined with the tunes of Disney veterans Alan Zachary and Michael Wainer, won't happen until the fall at the Theatre "Mask," YOU can be among the first to witness this amazing show if you hurry and grab tickets for the five July performances!
The story follows an alluring and self-assured gallery girl, a clumsy and shy financial analyst from Wall Street, and the audience who bears witness to an awkward but magical blind date. From cheesy pick-up lines, unforeseen coincidences, surprising confessions, and fear of showing their true selves to the world – instead of the carefully curated image from social media – to unexpected advice that echoes in their minds, coming from friends, family, and even exes.
"We've moved the action of the musical to 2025 and the story itself to the Theatre 'Mask.' After all, the play was written long ago... New memes have emerged, Games of Thrones gave way to Squid Games, and the social media landscape has undergone a genuine revolution: TikTok burst onto the scene, Chat GPT became a part of our lives, and everything has changed," explains Dmitry Bogachev. "So, our main characters have changed as well. The relationships and love between them remain unchanged."
Adore captivating music by a top-class live band, brilliant wit from the best musical theatre talents Russia has to offer, and two hours of unforgettable laughter and tears – it’s all waiting for you at the Theatre 'Mask' this July! "Romantic relationships form the backbone of almost all our projects with 'Broadway Moscow.' What better time for a date than the summer? That's why, along with festivals and live concerts, we're inviting you to enjoy our exclusive July showings of the new musical 'First Date': it will be as beautiful, fun, and unique as ever!" says Dmitry Shmelev, Creative Producer of MTS Live.
"The musical 'First Date' is yet another example of our successful collaboration – in almost six years, we've sold 16,000 tickets for the first version of this musical, which was extremely popular among the younger audience, and received numerous positive reviews and top scores: the rating of 'First Date' on Yandex Tickets never went below 8.6. We're confident that the move of the 'First Date' musical to the grand stage of the Theatre 'Mask,' and its new format, will open up exciting new possibilities for both our audience and the creative team and performers," says Enrico Mazaurishvili, Business Development Director of Yandex Tickets. Grab your tickets now and witness a modern twist on a timeless love story!
