Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson is a comedic rock musical that rewrites American history with a punk rock twist. Debuting in 2006, the musical takes audiences on a wild ride through the life of Andrew Jackson, the seventh US president. It blends historical fact with outrageous humor and rock music, portraying Jackson as an emo rock star rather than a traditional political figure.
The show explores themes of populism, the rise of the Democratic Party, and the controversial aspects of Jackson's legacy, including his treatment of Native Americans. While it uses historical events as a jumping-off point, it doesn't shy away from satire and social commentary. The music by Michael Friedman is infused with electric guitar riffs and catchy melodies, creating a unique and energetic theatrical experience.
