About This Show
The Synapse Theatre makes its New York debut with a rare revival of Bernard Pomerance’s award-winning play, The Elephant Man. The play is based on the life of John Merrick, a hideously-deformed but brilliant young man rescued from depravity by an equally brilliant surgeon, who makes him at once a medical marvel and a cause celebre, the object of adoration of high society in 1884 Victorian England.
