"This is the original and daring musical of our day… a powerhouse." – New York Magazine

In 1925, while chasing a dream of fame and fortune by turning a Kentucky cave into a tourist attraction, Floyd Collins himself became the attraction when he got trapped 200 feet underground. One of the most acclaimed in recent years, this revolutionary musical tells the transcendent tale of a true American dreamer.
