ABOUT THE SHOW

The spectacular musical adaptation of Fellini's "8½" features one man and the dozens of women in his life. 

"NINE" centers around Guido Contini, a famous Italian film director and ladies man. 

His last couple of movies have been panned by the critics, and Guido is under pressure to make a return to form with his latest film. 

However, there is one major problem: he hasn’t written a line of the script and has lost all inspiration. 

Guido’s professional and personal lives becomes intertwined as he attempts to save both his career and his marriage. 

His wife, Luisa, threatens to divorce Guido unless he can pay more attention to the marriage, but the director is constantly pulled in another direction by his saucy mistress, Carla, who shows up at the most inconvenient times.

In an attempt to find peace and inspiration, Guido suggests that he and Luisa go to a luxury spa near Venice. 

However, he does not expect his whole film crew and production team to follow him also. 

As Guido struggles to find a story line for his film, his mind becomes increasingly preoccupied, and fantasy and reality become inextricably intertwined. 

As he tries to create a new masterpiece, Guido must face the ultimate decision of life and death.
