1997 was certainly a good year for Titanic fans. Neither screen nor stage could keep away from discussing the Titanic's tragic maiden voyage. Most know the James Cameron screen adaptation well - it made box office history, which still holds water today. But, did you know there was a Broadway production that opened on the same year? Maury Yeston (Nine) and Peter Stone (1776) collaborated to tackle the herculean theme of Titanic - which naturally opens many commentary doors across a breadth of subjects. I decided to take a look at their piece from the history, the set, the characters and more.
