Story

Floyd Collins is a gripping and powerful musical based on the true story of a cave explorer in Kentucky, 1925. While chasing a dream of fame and fortune by turning Sand Cave into a tourist attraction, Floyd Collins himself becomes the attraction when he gets trapped 200 feet underground. Alone but for sporadic contact with the outside world, including his brother Homer, Floyd fights for his sanity – and, ultimately, his life – as the rescue effort above explodes into the first genuine media circus. Reporters and gawkers from across the country descend on the property, fueling the hysteria and manipulating the nation into holding its collective breath.

SPECTACULAR
"I didn’t know much about out this story going into it. I knew I wanted to see Jeremy Jordan, and knew he was doing amazing work in this show. But I was truly blown away by the story, the acting, and the technical elements. More people should be aware of this musical. I was so moved that I cried long after I left the theater. Truly a masterpiece."

A Fantastic showcase of talent
"Being my first ever broadway show I was blown away. The soundscape was so delicately nuanced, that even a whisper could be as loud as a scream without losing its identity. Brilliant music and artistry on stage."

Funny, Heart Warming, and Captivating
