ABOUT THE SHOW

The winner of four 2024 Tony Awards® including Best Musical, is "THE OUTSIDERS."

Adapted from S.E. Hinton’s seminal novel and Francis Ford Coppola's iconic film, this thrilling new musical features a book by Adam Rapp with Justin Levine, music and lyrics by Jamestown Revival (Jonathan Clay and Zach Chance) and Justin Levine, music supervision, orchestration, and arrangements by Justin Levine, choreography by Rick Kuperman and Jeff Kuperman, and direction by Tony Award® winner Danya Taymor

Entertainment Weekly says, "It has the power to inspire an entire generation."   

In Tulsa, Oklahoma, 1967, Ponyboy Curtis, his best friend Johnny Cade and their Greaser family of "OUTSIDERS" battle with their affluent rivals, the Socs.

"THE OUTSIDERS" navigates the complexities of self-discovery as the Greasers dream about who they want to become in a world that may never accept them. 

With a dynamic original score, "THE OUTSIDERS" is a story of friendship, family, belonging…and the realization that there is still “lots of good in the world.”
