Tony nominee Jeff Calhoun (Broadway's Grease! in 1994, Brooklyn, Big River, plus Newsies at Paper Mill Playhouse) directs and provides musical staging.
Melissa van der Schyff originated the role of Blanche Barrow and Claybourne Elder originated the role of Buck Barrow when Bonnie & Clyde first appeared, at the La Jolla Playhouse in fall 2009. It was named Best Musical by San Diego Theatre Critics Circle. They reprised their roles in fall 2010 when the show ran to critical acclaim at the Asolo Repertory Theatre in Sarasota, FL.
Music supervision/orchestrations/arrangements are by John McDaniel. As previously reported, composer Wildhorn (Wonderland, The Civil War, The Scarlet Pimpernel, Jekyll & Hyde) flirts with rockabilly, blues and gospel to tell the tale of a waitress and a troubled Texas teen whose notorious exploits captured the country's imagination during the Depression.
