Bonnie & Clyde is a musical with the book by Ivan Menchell, lyrics by Don Black, and music by Frank Wildhorn. The world premiere took place in La Jolla, California at the La Jolla Playhouse in November 2009. The musical debuted on Broadway in December 2011. It was nominated for 3 Outer Critics Circle Awards and 5 Drama Desk Awards, both including Best New Musical, as well as two nominations for the 2012 Tony Awards. Subsequent productions have since been staged internationally, including productions in Japan, Korea and the U.K. Bonnie and Clyde will also be making its debut in Melbourne, Australia later in 2014.

The musical centers on Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow, the ill-fated lovers and outlaws whose story has been infamous since they achieved folk hero status during the Great Depression. These two dreamers found their way into violent circumstances, and their electrifying story of love, adventure, and crime captured the attention of an entire nation! Stuck in a dead-end job in depression era Texas, young Bonnie Parker fell for charismatic Clyde Barrow. As their fame, notoriety, and body count rise, these ill-fated lovers are racing toward an inevitable end.
