Amélie the Musical inspired gold soft enamel pin. Roughly 3cm x 3.3cm (1.25in x 1.29in). This is an original design, there is nothing like it!
‘Amélie’ is a whimsical stage adaptation of the beloved 2001 French film of the same name. With a book by Craig Lucas, a captivating original score by Daniel Messé and lyrics by Nathan Tysen and Messé, the musical brings Amélie Poulain’s magical world to life through music, movement, and imagination. The show premiered at Berkeley Repertory Theatre in 2015 before making its highly anticipated Broadway debut in 2017 at the Walter Kerr Theatre. The original Broadway cast starred Phillipa Soo, known for her Tony-nominated role as Eliza Schuyler in Hamilton, in the lead role of Amélie. The production captured audiences with its enchanting storytelling, inventive staging, and heartfelt performances. In 2019, Amélie: The Musical premiered in London’s West End at the Other Palace Theatre, featuring a fresh cast led by Audrey Brisson as Amélie. The West End production reimagined the show with a more intimate, actor-musician approach, earning critical acclaim and Olivier Award nominations for Best New Musical and Best Original Score.
Set in the romantic streets of Paris, this charming musical follows the quiet yet curious Amélie Poulain, a shy waitress with a vivid imagination, as she sets out to secretly improve the lives of those around her. Along the way, she discovers the courage to pursue her own happiness and take a chance on love. Its a sweet story that through poetic storytelling offers a unique look into the beauty of small joys and the power of human connection.
‘How My World Gets Made’ is a quote from the opening number ‘Times Are Hard for Dreamers’. This song introduces the audience to Amélie Poulain’s imaginative and hopeful inner world, setting the tone for her journey. The phrase reflects Amélie’s yearning to understand and create the life she dreams of despite the challenges and loneliness she faces. The line ‘how my world gets made’ symbolises her hope that by reaching out and making a difference in others’ lives, she can shape her own happiness and sense of belonging.
This design combines this beautiful quote with the iconic gold picture frame set piece, Amélie’s gnome and suitcase with the famous red and green colours associated with the show to create a pin that perfectly encapsulates the vibrant world of Amélie Poulain.
