BLOODY BLOODY ANDREW JACKSON - Arizona Regional Theatre - October 18-27, 2019




Book by Alex Timbers
Music and Lyrics by Michael Friedman

A.J. kicked British butt, shafted the Indians and smacked down the Spaniards, all in the name of these United States – who cares if he didn't have permission? Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson creators, Michael Friedman (Love's Labour's Lost, The Fortress of Solitude) and Alex Timbers (Love's Labour's Lost, Peter and the Starcatcher), cook up an alternate universe (and draw parallels to today's political/populist landscape) with their musical about the seventh U.S. president.

The women all feel obligated to be a part of Tracy’s wedding party, although none of them feel especially close to the bride.
