"Cracked hearts. Strange fates. Monstrous souls. Impossible dreams. The Grinning Man is a wonderfully weird and wickedly wild new musical that offers a vision of how an alternate history might have unfolded.
Brought to life by writer Carl Grose (Dead Dog in a Suitcase, Tristan and Yseult), director Tom Morris (Swallows and Amazons, War Horse) and composed by Tim Phillips and Marc Teitler (Juliet and her Romeo), The Grinning Man is a brand new musical, based on The Man Who Laughs by Victor Hugo."
