Hit rock musical Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson plays its final performance at off-Broadway's Public Theater. The show features a score by Michael Friedman and a book and direction by Alex Timbers.
An audacious mix of historical fact and invention, Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson redefines America’s controversial seventh president—the man who invented the Democratic Party, doubled the size of our nation and signed the Indian Removal Acts that started the Trail of Tears—with a raucous blend of outrageous comedy, anarchic theatricality and an infectious emo rock score.
The cast features Benjamin Walker as Andrew Jackson alongside River Aguirre as Lyncoya, James Barry as Male Soloist, Michael Crane as Clay/Blackhawk, Michael Dunn as Calhoun, Greg Hildreth as Red Eagle, Jeff Hiller as John Quincy Adams, Lucas Near-Verbrugghe as Martin Van Buren, Maria Elena Ramirez as Rachel, Kate Cullen Roberts as Elizabeth, Ben Steinfeld as Monroe, Colleen Werthmann as The Storyteller and Emily Young as Female Soloist.
