Dead Outlaw

How did the preserved body of an Old West train robber from Oklahoma wind up hanging in a Southern California amusement park ride in 1976? Dead Outlaw tells the unbelievable true story of Elmer McCurdy, a man who had twice as many adventures in death as in life, and whose long, strange odyssey spanned a continent and a century. Alongside fellow composer Erik Della Penna, David Yazbek has reunited with playwright Itamar Moses and director David Cromer to create Audible Theater’s first-ever musical. Don’t miss your chance to see this strictly limited world premiere about the Bandit Who Wouldn’t Give Up. Because just like McCurdy himself, some legends are dying to be told.
