About the Outsiders

The story that defined a generation,
reimagined as a groundbreaking musical

In Tulsa, Oklahoma, 1967, Ponyboy Curtis, his best friend Johnny Cade and their Greaser family of ‘outsiders’ battle with their affluent rivals, the Socs. THE OUTSIDERS navigates the complexities of self-discovery as the Greasers dream about who they want to become in a world that may never accept them. With a dynamic original score, THE OUTSIDERS is a story of friendship, family, belonging…and the realization that there is still “lots of good in the world.”

Adapted from S.E. HINTON’s seminal novel and FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA‘s iconic film, this thrilling new Broadway musical features a book by ADAM RAPP with JUSTIN LEVINE, music and lyrics by JAMESTOWN REVIVAL (Jonathan Clay & Zach Chance) and JUSTIN LEVINE, music supervision, orchestration, and arrangements by JUSTIN LEVINE, choreography by RICK KUPERMAN & JEFF KUPERMAN, and direction by Tony Award® winner DANYA TAYMOR.

Winner of 4 Tony Awards®, including Best Musical, THE OUTSIDERS is now in its 3rd smash year on Broadway and playing to sold-out audiences across North America.

Look & Listen

A close-up shot of Johnny Cade sitting on a concrete structure, looking wary and bruised with a prominent black eye. He wears a frayed denim vest over a striped shirt. In the blurred background, Ponyboy Curtis stands holding a sketchbook, looking on with concern.
A wide, dramatic stage shot filled with bright orange light and thick smoke, depicting the church fire. Silhouetted cast members move through the chaos, some holding wooden planks, near a rusted car frame on a gravel-covered stage.
A wide ensemble shot under blue spotlights. The "Socs" stand on the left in clean letterman jackets and preppy attire, while the "Greasers" stand on the right in denim, white tees, and flannels. Ponyboy stands in the center, looking contemplative and holding his book.
A tense medium shot of several Socs in green and gold "R" letterman jackets surrounding Ponyboy. One Soc in a purple shirt aggressively points a finger at him, while another holds a football. The lighting is harsh and cold.
A group shot of the Greaser boys hanging out by a junked car. Darry holds up a small object for Ponyboy to see, while Dallas, Two-Bit, and Johnny lean against the car or stand nearby in their signature 1960s working-class outfits.
An action shot of the cast performing on a multi-level metal jungle gym structure. Cast members are perched at various heights, some hanging upside down or climbing, showcasing the athletic and industrial nature of the set design.
An intimate, warmly lit scene of Johnny and Ponyboy lying down. Ponyboy is smiling and holding a flashlight over a book they are reading together, creating a rare moment of peace and brotherhood.
A dramatic medium shot of Darry Curtis with his arm around a distressed-looking Johnny Cade. Darry looks intense and protective, while Johnny appears shaken, set against a dark, shadowy background.
A high-energy action shot during a fight sequence. A performer in a green shirt is captured mid-air in a wide straddle jump over other cast members who are grappling on the gravel-covered floor.
A poignant shot of Cherry Valance sitting on a bench made of cinder blocks, looking off-set with a somber expression. Ponyboy sits on the ground at her feet, looking up at her. In the dark background, other couples are seen leaning against a car near a "Concessions" sign.
A tense, dramatic stage shot. On the right, two men are aggressively confronting each other across a table, one in a blue short-sleeve shirt and the other in a plaid shirt with dirt-smudged pants. The man in blue grabs the other’s arm, shouting. On the left, from the perspective of a third, blurred person in denim jeans and a t-shirt, we watch the fight. In the dark background, another man leans against a piece of an old car.
An intense, dramatic action shot captured under dark, high-contrast lighting. A performer in a purple shirt is shown splashing a large quantity of water into the air, creating an arched spray that catches the light and partially obscures their face. They are standing near two other people grappling on a dark, wet floor next to a shiny, blue vintage convertible car, which has a headlight shining brightly.
A moody, striking stage shot under dark, low-key lighting. Three young men, the lead characters, are walking towards the camera from the dark background, illuminated by a single, sharp overhead spotlight. The center character wears a white t-shirt and jeans; the one to the left wears a striped shirt and denim vest, and the one on the right is in a light-colored t-shirt. Their shadows are cast forward on the stage floor.
A somber, low-angle shot on a dimly lit stage. One performer, with light blonde hair, is kneeling on one knee, facing the camera with an intense expression and his hands wrapped in tape. He wears a dirty t-shirt and ripped jeans. Surrounding him, other cast members are standing or walking, partially obscured by shadows and backlighting, creating a feeling of dejection or tension. An old car body and stacked tires are visible in the background.
A promotional group photo with a slightly desaturated, warm tone. A group of seven performers in the roles of the Greasers are posed and arranged on and around a junked, open-top car. They are wearing their signature 1960s working-class outfits: denim jackets, t-shirts, leather, and flannels. Their expressions are serious and defiant, gazing in different directions. The background shows stacked tires and an industrial warehouse feel with hazy lighting.
An explosive, dramatic action shot of a stage rumble captured during a rain effect. Under warm, directional lighting that spotlights the water droplets, two performers are in a tight, athletic clinch, one lifting the other off the ground in a fighting move. The scene is dynamic and muddy, with the background elements, including an old car, visible through the heavy, falling water.
