Visiting Presenters

Welcome to the glittering underbelly of 1950s New York. Struggling press agent Sidney Falco will do anything for his big break, but he can’t do it without the help of the city’s most feared gossip columnist, J.J. Hunsecker. As Sidney is pulled deeper into J.J.’s treacherous world, his loyalties are caught between J.J.’s sister, the jazz musician she loves, and J.J. himself. 

Based on the film noir classic, this musical features a jazz-fueled score by Academy Award winner Marvin Hamlisch (A Chorus Line) and Tony Award nominee Craig Carnelia (Working), with a book by Tony Award winner John Guare (Six Degrees of Separation), and direction by Tony Award winner Ted Sperling (Floyd Collins).

“A MUST-SEE FOR ANYONE INTERESTED IN MUSICAL THEATER. Diamond-tough and in most ways just as brilliant.” – Clive Barnes, The New York Post
