From the composer of Dreamgirls & writer of Chicago comes a remarkable, true story of famed entertainers and twins, Violet and Daisy Hilton, who became famous during the 1930s. Side Show is a moving portrait of two women whose bond brings them the spectacle of fame, but denies them true love and acceptance. As the starring act of a downtrodden touring sideshow on the Orpheum Circuit; they are eager to accept an offer of fame, fortune and potential romance proffered by talent scouts Terry and Buddy who ultimately launch The Hilton Sisters into Hollywood stardom. Nominated for 4 TONY Awards (including Best Score, Best Book and Best Musical); Side Show is a stunning reminder of the importance to accept and celebrate what makes us unique; a story that will undoubtedly touch your heart.
