[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] The Gyeongnam Miryang Cultural Foundation will present the original musical "Heotswing Band" as a planned performance on June 11th at 7:30 PM at the Miryang Arirang Art Center Grand Theater.

"Heotswing Band" tells the story of Bang Gyu-seok, a classical piano major living in Bupyeong, known as the center of jazz music in the 1970s, who becomes deeply immersed in jazz music at a club he accidentally encounters. The musical depicts the turbulent big band born amidst the scenes of the era and history, and a ten-day journey from Incheon to Busan.

This performance is a so-called jazz-through musical genre, featuring jazz music played live throughout and nonstop swing dance by the actors. It is the first time this genre is introduced in Miryang.

Additionally, songs carrying the meaning of each era, such as the national anthem, folk songs, and children's songs, are rearranged to showcase the unique charm of jazz.

Tickets go on sale from 10 AM on the 25th via the Miryang Cultural Foundation website and by phone, priced at 15,000 KRW, and are available for audiences aged 8 and above.

Paid members of the Miryang Arirang Art Center can make advance reservations on the 24th and purchase up to four tickets per person at a 30% discounted price.
