Notes from the underground

Article Abstract:

Playwright Tina Landau and composer Adam Guettel were intrigued by the true story of Floyd Collins, a farmer who became trapped underground in 1925, and spent 6 years turning it into a musical. The resulting production, 'Floyd Collins', explores themes of greed and love. It had a successful run in New York, and will soon open at Chicago's Goodman Theater.
