Floyd Collins
Bohemian Theater Ensemble
Presented at Theater Wit
1229 W Belmont Ave, Chicago
Music & Lyrics by Adam Guettel
Book & Lyrics by Tina Landau
Directed by Peter Marston Sullivan
In 1925, while chasing a dream of fame and fortune by turning a Kentucky cave into a tourist attraction, Floyd Collins himself became the attraction when he got trapped underground. Alone but for sporadic contact with the outside world, Floyd fought for his sanity and ultimately his life as the rescue effort above exploded into the first genuine media circus. Reporters and gawkers from across the country descended on the property, fueling the hysteria and manipulating the nation into holding its collective breath. This haunting musical — one of the most acclaimed in recent years — tells the transcendent tale of a true American dreamer.
Running: June 15 – July 15, 2012
