Side Show made history on Opening Night, last night November 17 at 7:45 p.m. when Clear Channel Spectacolor broadcasted the show-stopping Act I finale in Times Square with never before used audio technology on one of their digital billboards. The rousing Act I finale, 'Who Will Love Me as I Am?,' sung by the show's two leading ladies, Erin Davie and Emily Padgett, was the first live performance in history aired in Times Square.

Directed by Academy Award®-winner Bill Condon, featuring a "supercharged score" (Charles Isherwood, New York Times), Side Show includes new music by multiple Grammy Award® winner and Academy Award®, Golden Globe®, and Tony Award® nominee Henry Krieger (Dreamgirls), with book and lyrics by Tony Award® nominee Bill Russell and additional book material by Bill Condon, and choreography by Tony and Olivier Award® nomineeAnthony Van Laast (Mamma Mia!).

Side Show is inspired by the remarkable true story of the Hilton twins, Daisy and Violet, who were legends in their time and the highest paid performers on the vaudeville circuit. Side Show is their heartwarming search for first love and acceptance amidst the spectacle of fame and scrutiny under the spotlight.
