Quo Vadis - The Musical

Based on the Nobel-Prize winning novel by Henryk Sienkiewicz

Music and Lyrics by Olaf Pyttlik | Book by Angus Kohm

A story of love that defies all odds, a faith that defies the most powerful man on earth, and a moral code that survives the most brutal of tortures, the most horrible of deaths.
