Live Session with 'Dead Outlaw' the Musical

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Apr 3, 2024

"Dead Outlaw" is a new musical about the real-life American outlaw Elmer McCurdy and the larger-than-life image he gained after his death. The show's band takes center stage in the production, and we're joined for a live in-studio performance by Erik Della Penna, who co-wrote the show's music and lyrics with the show's creator David Yazbek, as well as music director Rebekah Bruce and bandmembers Jeb Brown, Chris Smylie, Spencer Cohen, and HANK. Actors Julia Knitel and Thom Sesma also join to perform their songs. Produced by Audible Theater, Dead Outlaw plays at the Minetta Lane Theatre until April 14 and will also be released as an Audible Original later this year.
