Based on the true story of Conjoined twins Violet and Daisy Hilton who became stars during the Depression, Side Show is a moving portrait of two women joined at the hip whose extraordinary bondage brings them fame but denies them love. Told almost entirely in song, the show follows their progression from England to America, around the vaudeville circuit and to Hollywood on the eve of their appearance in the 1932 movie, Freaks.
Nominated for the 2015 Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards for Best Revival of a Musical, the show features songs including "Very Well Connected," "All in the Mind," and "The Great Wedding Show," and delves deep into the twins’ backstory, including their relationship with Harry Houdini and a proposed separation surgery, complex situations involving honesty, sophistication and truth.
