The Apple Boys

In Gilded Age New York, Coney Island is exploding with colorful characters, sideshow acts, and brand-new hotdog recipes. But when Johnny Appleseed’s grandson Jack, and his working-class pals discover that an unscrupulous landlord has designs on the family orchard, they’ll have to band together to raise the money in time. Their foolproof get-rich-quick scheme? Taking top prize in the turn-of-the-century’s biggest singing competition, of course. The Apple Boys is a pitch-perfect New York story about harmony, friendship, and the little dreams that live in the Big Apple.

The Apple Boys features a book by Jonothon Lyons (Little Shop of Horrors) and music and lyrics by Ben Bonnema (One Way), with direction by David Alpert (If/Then) and choreography by Marc Kimelman (Masquerade).
