Book by Alexander Dinelaris
Based on the Warner Bros. film screenplay by Lawrence Kasdan
Director: Sara Catherine Barnes
Superstar Rachel Marron refuses to believe she’s in danger, but her newly hired bodyguard Frank Farmer thinks otherwise. Each one expects to be in charge, but what they don’t expect is to find their home in one another. An exhilarating romantic thriller, The Bodyguard features a list of irresistible hits including “One Moment in Time,” “I Have Nothing,” “I Wanna Dance with Somebody,” and one of the best-selling songs of all time: “I Will Always Love You.”

“There’s a lot to love about THE BODYGUARD at The Garden… This is one moment in time you don’t want to miss. Aaron Wallace, BroadwayWorld Orlando
“I would say that ‘Yes, I am a fan of Whitney Houston, but I am a HUGE fan of the new LIVE performance based on the 1992 film currently LIVE at the Garden Theatre… Highly recommended!'” – Josh Garrick, Wandering Educators
