"Anyone who cares about the progress of the Broadway musical has to see Nine!" That’s what Frank Rich declared in the New York Times after the opening night performance of this Fellini inspired musical. Based on the classic film 8 1/2, Nine went on to win five 1982 Tony Awards®, including Best Musical. Now, the show the New York Post hailed as "a true original" and the Daily News called "brilliant, daring, innovative and divine" returns in a spectacular new production starring Antonio Banderas (Evita, The Mask Of Zorro) in his Broadway debut. Nine revolves around Guido Contini, a film director in the Fellini mold. Having just suffered through several box office flops, he attempts to write and direct a new film but is unable to come up with a suitable plot. Drifting towards a nervous breakdown, Guido finds himself examining his past flawed relationships with the many women who have come through his life and struggling to act his mature age of 40 as opposed to nine.
