About “Bonnie & Clyde: The Musical”
At the height of the Great Depression, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow went from two small-town nobodies in West Texas to America’s most renowned folk heroes and Texas law enforcement’s worst nightmares.
Called “fearless, shameless and alluring,” the Tony-nominated “Bonnie & Clyde” comes from the legendary Frank Wildhorn, who also composed “Jekyll & Hyde,” “The Civil War” and “Dracula.”
Billed as an electrifying story of love, adventure and crime that captured the attention of an entire country, “Bonnie & Clyde” features a nontraditional score, combining blues, gospel and rockabilly music.
