The Outsiders at Academy of Music

Synopsis

We all remember the epic novel that formed part of every English class.

Everybody remembers Ponyboy Curtis, we felt the teen angst on bone-level, and even identified with some of the struggles Ponyboy, Johnny Cade, Dally Winston, Darry Curtis, and the others came face to face with. We dreamt small-town dreams with them, we walked the road of brutality, addiction, sorrow, and socio-economic struggles alongside them, with the storyline and themes hitting us where it matters.

Add a dash of Jonathan Clay, Zach Chance, and Justin Levine’s 60’s-inspired music to the nostalgic classic, stir it with incredible voices, colour it with creative choices that will blow your mind, and top it with a generous dose of high-octane choreography and unparallelled visual vignettes, and you have a musical production that is destined to rise to the top like cream, bringing home some of the most sought-after awards, including four Tony Awards, an Outer Critics Circle Award, two Drama Desk Awards, a Theatre World Award, and a Chita Rivera Award.
