where the road will take him and finds a new home with the remarkable crew of a traveling circus, and a life—
and love—beyond his wildest dreams. Seen through the eyes of his older self, his adventure becomes a poignant
reminder that if you choose the ride, life can begin again at any age. Tony Award®-nominated director Jessica
Stone’s “huge, heart-filling” production (The New York Times) features a book by three-time Tony Awards®
