Nine is a musical initiated by and with music and lyrics by Maury Yeston and a book by Arthur Kopit. Based on the film 8½, it tells the story of film director Guido Contini, who is dreading his imminent 40th birthday and facing a midlife crisis, which is blocking his creative impulses and entangling him in a web of romantic difficulties in early-1960s Venice.
