“Bonnie & Clyde” is a musical with music by Frank Wildhorn, lyrics by Don Black and a book by Ivan Menchell. The score combines blues, gospel, rockabilly with traditional Broadway music.
At its core the play is a fractured love story. The legend of the ill-fated couple who achieved folk hero status during the great depression was born from the hard times of the 1930s. It was a time in our nation’s history when desperation and love combined to create the most notorious couple this country has ever known.
