After a sold-out NYC run last spring, the hit new musical Dead Outlaw returns to 54 Below in its original version!
This encore features the show’s creator, Emmy, Tony®, and Grammy winning musician David Yazbek, his co-composer and bandmate Erik Della Penna, and a world-class band singing through this haunting true tale of money, ambition, fame, memory and death with a narration written by the show’s book-writer Itamar Moses. The Minetta Lane production (Audible Theatricals) won nearly every award possible and across the board great reviews.
The title-character Elmer McCurdy was an ambitious, turn-of-the-century fuckup whose death at the hands of a Western posse ended a life of failed crime and alcoholism and began a brilliant career as a mummified side-show attraction that travelled the USA for decades.
By the time this journey ended, Elmer’s name had been forgotten and his desiccated body was hanging in a house-of-horrors ride at an amusement park in Southern California, spray-painted day-glo orange.
Then one day, a grip for “The Six-Million Dollar Man” TV show jostled what he thought was “just a dummy” and an arm fell off, revealing a human bone and beginning a hunt for the origins of this enigma.
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to see how a future classic is born.
