Bonnie and Clyde (music by Frank Wildhorn) had all the makings of a great musical: a compelling story (one that needs no introduction), beautiful costumes and sets, and some major talent. Broadway stars Jeremy Jordan and Laura Osnes (pictured above) took on the infamous roles of Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker for a run at the Gerald Shoenfeld Theatre that sadly lasted only two months. This came as a shock to director Jeff Calhoun, as the show had shown promise in its previous runs in La Jolla and Sarasota. Bonnie and Clyde will, unfortunately, remain one of those under-the-radar musicals- but a fabulous show nonetheless. Listen to the Original Broadway Cast recording here.
