KISMET - 1983
A musical tale of grandeur, Kismet is an extravaganza, a musical pageant conjuring up all of the delights of the Arabian Nights, from the brilliant Bazaar of the Caravans to the moonlit gardens of Baghdad. It's a romantic story of a poet who becomes an emir in a single miraculous day.
With Music From Alexander Borodin
Musical adaptation and lyrics by Robert Wright and George Forrest
Book by Charles Lederer and Luther Davis.
From the play by Edward Knoblock.
KISMET opened on Broadway on Dec 3 1953 and ran for 583 performances.
