Date Night Downtown with PRETTY WOMAN THE MUSICAL

Cessy Newmon February 3, 2023

Looking for Valentine’s options? Girls’ night out? PRETTY WOMAN THE MUSICAL based on the 1990 highest-grossing RomCom for a decade – and the one that launched the career of a young Julia Roberts – opens in Jacksonville on 2/15.

The story is based on the classic Pygmalion (which originates in Ovid’s Metamorphoses written over 2000 years ago). Edward, a successful businessman, hires Vivian, a free-spirited prostitute, to be his escort to several functions over the …
