ABOUT THE SHOW
When the dangerously handsome Johnny Blood’s life is on the line, he must put his fate into the hands of a colorful cast of characters including a mysterious Sheriff, an eccentric Priest, an authoritarian Governor, a Saloon Girl gone good, and his sister the "Sister." In a world where "justice never was too just" can his friends band together and pull off the greatest caper yet, or will Johnny be left hanging? This witty and wild new musical comedy takes the Bard’s "Measure for Measure" whittles it down to 6 central characters, throws in a glorious score, a LOT of comedy (both physical and verbal (in rhyming couplets no less), then really shakes things up by setting it in 1890s Arizona territory.
– Winner: 2018 Outer Critics Circle Award for Best New Off-Broadway Musical, and the Off
Broadway Alliance Award for Best Musical
