Theatreworks invites you and an UNLIMITED NUMBER OF GUESTS to attend the dress rehearsal for their production of Elephant Man on Tuesday, June 19th at 8 pm at the Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts.

Winner of every major award for drama, this enthralling, ravishingly theatrical play chronicles the life of John Merrick, the deformed 19th century carnival attraction who became an urbane and clever favorite of Victorian society. His dream of recognition as a man like any other propels a quest for acceptance and equality that touches the heart of the human experience. Portrayed without makeup or device, the Elephant Man is one of the epic characters of contemporary theatre. Brief partial nudity.

“A giant of a play. Wonderful, moving, and purely theatrical.”
New York Post
