A musical that takes its title from the century-old folk song that became a Number One R&B hit for Lloyd Price in 1959, Stagger Lee, spans the 20th Century, tracing mythical characters in their quest to achieve the American Dream. The deep-seated themes of racism and the raw power of human will are sure to give you chills. And the music—from Joplin-inspired tunes to R&B and hip-hop—will definitely get your feet moving.
