Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Cold War, two chess champions battle for the ultimate prize: the World Championship title. However, the real game is fought off the board, as a woman, caught between them, becomes the queen in a high-stakes triangle of love, betrayal and political manipulation.
Featuring an iconic, powerhouse score including the chart-topping hits ‘I Know Him So Well’ and ‘One Night in Bangkok’, this is a musical phenomenon you just can’t miss.
