Musical Direction by Ed Martel
Produced by Betty Vaughan & Kathryn Skatula

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 200 feet underground. This haunting musical ­ one of the most acclaimed in recent years ­ tells the transcendent tale of a true American dreamer. NEW YORK MAGAZINE writes, "This is the original and daring musical of our day... a powerhouse" and the LOS ANGELES TIMES says "Plaintive, often inspired...Adam Guettel is a composer for the new century."
