Pretty Woman: The Musical is a musical with music and lyrics by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance , and a book by Garry Marshall and J. F. Lawton . The musical is based on the 1990 film of the same name written by Lawton and directed by Marshall. It centers around a free spirited Hollywood prostitute Vivian Ward, who is hired by Edward Lewis, a wealthy businessman, to be his escort for several business and social functions, and their developing relationship over the course of her week-long stay with him.

In an interview, director Jerry Mitchell said that the score "will have the feel of late '80s-early '90s rock: That’s one of the great things about Bryan Adams—it's where he lives. So you’ve got the rock and roll stuff, the up-tempos." [10] "Oh, Pretty Woman" was originally excluded from the musical. [11] On June 19, 2019 Pretty Woman: The Musical included Roy Orbison 's song " Oh, Pretty Woman " during the curtain call. [12]

[24] On July 9, 2019 Wesley Orbison and Alex Orbison joined the cast on stage to perform "Oh, Pretty Woman" to celebrate the 55th anniversary of the song's release and to pay tribute to their late father Roy Orbison.

The musical numbers from the 2018 Chicago out-of-town production are as follows:
Pretty Woman: The Musical was generally poorly received by critics, with the show's writing being a frequent focus of criticism. Critics found that the gender dynamics of the movie's plot had aged poorly and that the musical had failed to bring the story up to date for 2018. [43] In his review for The New York Times , Ben Brantley criticized the verbatim reuse of dialog from the movie, writing that the show's creators had "hewed suffocatingly close to the film’s story, gags and dialogue." Critics from The Guardian and Variety took issue with the show's glossiness and what they perceived as an attempt to make a "G-rated family show" from the source material. [43] [44]
The score by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance was generally described as "pleasant" but "bland". [45] [46] [43] Critics generally approved of the show's performers, particularly stars Andy Karl and Samantha Barks, but found they were unable to rise above the show's material. In a review for Vulture , Sara Holdren expressed sympathy for the show's performers, writing that they were "hooked up like defibrillators to a body that, no matter how much energy they pump into it, can’t be revived".
