19th May to 4th June 2023 | THEATRE 102, 102 ANZAC AVE, REDCLIFFE
Directed by Elodie Boal
PLOT SUMMARY
America's most notorious lovers and bank robbers take the country by storm in this sexy and compelling adventure.
"Embark on a wild ride through the height of the Great Depression with Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow. From small-town nobodies to the nation's most notorious folk heroes, the electrifying musical BONNIE & CLYDE brings to life the captivating tale of love, crime, and adventure.
Fuelled by their mutual thirst for fame and excitement, Bonnie and Clyde's explosive meeting sets them on a dangerous path of law-breaking and love. But as their notoriety grows and the stakes get higher, their journey becomes a deadly downward spiral.
Breathing new life into the classic story is the award-winning creative team of our 2022 production of INTO THE WOODS, including Elodie Boal (Best Director of a Musical 2022, Gold Palm Theatre Award) and Jennifer B Ashley (Most Outstanding Performance by a Female Actress in a Musical 2022, Gold Palm Theatre Award), as well as highly esteemed musical direction by Brisbane’s own, Kym Brown.
BONNIE & CLYDE features a pulsating, non-traditional score fusing blues, gospel, and rockabilly music. This Tony-nominated show from the legendary Frank Wildhorn (JEKYLL & HYDE, CIVIL WAR, DRACULA) is a must-see for audiences craving excitement, romance and danger."
