Titanic the Musical, winner of the 1997 Tony Award for Best Musical, embarked on a new tour of the U.K. in March. Thom Southerland, who has directed several productions of the hit musical around the world in the past decade, directed the tour, which continued through July 29. The production was filmed at the New Victoria Theatre this past summer.
