ARTWORK BY RICH HILLIARD

"... a hypnotic spectacle that packs an emotional wallop."

The Hollywood Reporter

Violet and Daisy Hilton shared a rare bond: they were literally attached at the hip. The conjoined twins are the real-life inspiration behind Side Show, which follows the story of the English entertainers and their search for love and acceptance amidst exploitation and fame in the 1930s’ side show, vaudeville and Hollywood communities. Featuring a rich, melodic score and nearly a dozen new songs like “Stuck with You” and “Ready to Play,” this 2014 Broadway musical revival “burrows deep into your spirit. It’s just wonderful.” (The New York Times) Features students from JMU’s School of Theatre and Dance and School of Music.

SIDE SHOW is presented by special arrangement with SAMUEL FRENCH, INC.
