The performance engages audience members in an intimate, multi-sensory experience that places them in the direct center of Bonnie & Clyde’s story. Audience members can grab a slice of pie and a Coke from Bonnie at Marco’s Cafe, eavesdrop as Clyde flirts with guests and plays his own rendition of Jimmy Rodgers “Sleep Baby Sleep” at a house party, and read over Bonnie’s shoulder as she writes the poem “Suicide Sal” during her time in Kaufman County Jail.
