Following the success of its critically-acclaimed 2019–2022 UK production, which earned a GRAMMY ® nomination and three Olivier Award nominations, Amélie the Musical now makes its Aotearoa New Zealand premiere in Poneke Wellington at the Hannah Playhouse this November 14 – 29, 2025.
Inspiring, whimsical, and brimming with heart, Amélie the Musical brings Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s five-time Oscar-nominated film to the stage with wit and charm. The show follows Amélie, an extraordinary but shy young woman who lives vividly inside her own imagination, as she secretly improvises small acts of mischief and kindness for those around her. When an unexpected chance at love comes her way, Amélie realises she’ll need to move beyond the lonely isolation of her youth and allow herself to be truly seen.
Featuring an original score by Daniel Messé and Nathan Tysen, and a book by two-time TONY Award® nominee Craig Lucas (The Light in the Piazza, An American in Paris), Amélie the Musical transports audiences into Amélie’s fantastical world as she discovers her voice, uncovers the power of human connection, and finds new possibilities around every corner.
