About
NOVA Music Theatre presents Chess: The Musical, a battle of minds, hearts, and nations!
When American grandmaster Freddie Trumper faces off against Russian champion Anatoly Sergievsky, their rivalry extends beyond the chessboard. With Cold War tensions rising and political forces at play, chess second Florence Vassy finds herself torn between loyalty, love, and ambition.
With lyrics by Tim Rice (Jesus Christ Superstar, Evita) and music by ABBA’s Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus (Mamma Mia!), Chess delivers an electrifying rock score, including "One Night in Bangkok", "I Know Him So Well", and "Anthem."
Now experience this gripping tale of passion, politics, and betrayal like never before. Who will claim victory—on the board and in love?
