Joseph Merrick was a 19th century British man who became the star of a traveling freak show circuit because of his physical deformities. When a renowned doctor takes Merrick under his care at London Hospital, he is astonished by Merrick’s brilliant intelligence and unshakable faith. But with Merrick’s new life comes new complexity… and a “normal” existence begins to seem all but impossible. Based on a real-life story, The Elephant Man was first performed in 1979 and recently revived on Broadway. Performance includes brief nudity
