Dead Outlaw, a co-production between Porchlight Music Theatre and Theater Wit, is the Chicago premiere of the Tony Award-nominated musical with music and lyrics by David Yazbek and Erik Della Penna and a book by Itamar Moses. Based on the true story of bumbling bandit Elmer McCurdy, the show follows his mummified body as it becomes a traveling curiosity across America and beyond, spanning more than a century. Directed by Jeremy Wechsler and choreographed by Brenda Didier, this musical comedy examines themes of fame and its repercussions. The production won three Best Musical awards from the Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle, and New York Drama Critics' Circle.
