Amélie is an astonishing young woman who lives quietly in the world, but loudly in her mind. She secretly improvises small, but extraordinary acts of kindness that bring happiness to those around her. But when a chance at love comes her way, Amélie will have to risk everything and say what’s in her heart.
Amélie, played by the delightful Audrey Brisson (Dead Dog in a Suitcase and Other Love Songs (Kneehigh with Everyman & Playhouse), The Elephantom, Pinocchio and Pericles (National Theatre), The Grinning Man (Bristol Old Vic) and more), is a new musical based on the much loved five-time Oscar®-nominated film.
Although times are hard for dreamers, Amélie is someone to believe in.
