Almost immediately after William Lindsay Gresham's Nightmare Alley was first published in 1946, quintessential Hollywood hunk, Tyrone Power, bought the movie rights. While the haunting 1947 film-noir adaption starred Power himself in the lead, this modern-day interpretation is the brainchild of music maven Jonathan Brielle, who, like Power, found inspiration after reading the novel.

The Geffen Playhouse says…

"Step right up and step right into Nightmare Alley — where fate and free-will collide. This world premiere musical tells the tale of a young carnie couple whose wondrous feats make believers of us all. But there are plenty other side shows in this story – freaks, geeks, lovers and fools bring perfect harmony to this evocative new score.   Come one, come all, to this delicious dance with fate."
