published: 11 Feb 2026, 2 min read, 'EVENT EXPIRED'
when: 11 Feb 2026 | venue: Mark Taper Forum | cost: $40-$250 | address: 135 N Grand Avenue, Los Angeles 90012(THROUGH MARCH 22) Here Lies Love is a groundbreaking musical about former First Lady of the Philippines Imelda Marcos and her family’s rise to power and subsequent fall at the hands of the Philippine People Power Revolution. Witness her journey through “exhilarating songs” (USA Today) and “imaginative spectacle” (The Guardian) over “90 breathless minutes” (The Washington Post).
Featuring music by Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Award winner David Byrne and Grammy Award winner Fatboy Slim, and direction by Center Theatre Group Brindell & Milton Gottlieb Artistic Director Snehal Desai, comes an all-new production (the first since appearing on Broadway in 2023) in a transformative experience combining disco beats and adrenaline-fueled choreography. The show goes beyond Imelda's near-mythic obsession with shoes to explore true questions of authoritarian rule and responsibility. It is a story fueled by greed, power, and disco that feels as timely today as ever.
Here Lies Love is playing at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles from February 11 - March 22, 2026—a musical with music from David Byrne and Fatboy Slim that tells the story of the former First Lady of the Philippines. Tickets on sale now.
