As is the case with the legacy of most historical folk heroes, much fact has been blended with fiction and much fiction has been solidified as fact that, in recounting the tempestuous spree of Bonnie & Clyde, the two are somewhat indiscernible. However, what we aim to present with our musical adaptation of this immensely popular title is the most historically accurate interpretation that has been seen to date. While it is our goal to be factually accurate throughout the musical, we admit that some aggrandizing was necessary in order to make this story sing. With the usage of this tool, we hope to supply you and your students with the necessary facts to invite a classroom discussion comparing the differences between real and make‐believe.
