The country’s going crazy; partisan politics, civil rights threatened, technology exploding. That's right, it's 1979! Somewhere in America’s heartland, with more heart than sense, Bronco Billy struggles to keep his traveling Wild West show alive. But when Billy and his ragtag troupe of misfits meet Antoinette, a Manhattan heiress on-the-run, the ride gets even wilder as she turns Billy’s world upside down. This upbeat new musical is about following your passion and living your dreams.
“Spectacular world premiere… cannot offer enough superlative-laden adjectives to describe the brilliance of the cast” – Broadway World
Dennis Hackin (Book) created the story to pay homage to his parents who wanted to be cowboys and moved their city slicker family from Chicago to Arizona to live out their dreams. He wrote the film version of “Bronco Billy,” which was co-produced with Neal Dobrofsky and was released by Warner Bros.
“Bronco Billy – The Musical” is directed by Hunter Bird, with music and lyrics by Chip Rosenbloom and John Torres. Additional lyrics were provided by Michele Brourman, musical direction by Anthony Lucca, choreography by Janet Roston, and arrangments/orchestration by David O.
