About this event

Water for Elephants is a touring Broadway musical adaptation of Sara Gruen’s novel that brings a Depression‑era traveling circus to life through folk‑tinged songs, intimate drama, and large‑scale theatrical spectacle. At the Hollywood Pantages Theatre in Los Angeles the production foregrounds acrobatic and aerial sequences alongside intricate ensemble puppetry (most notably the elephant Rosie), with a book by Rick Elice, music and lyrics by PigPen Theatre Co., and direction by Jessica Stone.
