THE OUTSIDERS is a story about class, broken homes, protecting one’s turf, and the all-too-real American condition known as the “Haves and Have Nots.” It is a world of kids of every sort, from destitute outlaws, gas station workers, and high school dropouts (the Greasers), to the very well-appointed, college-bound, and wealthy (the Socs). This is Tulsa 1967, where to be a Soc means to be rich and white. To be a Greaser is to be poor, rejected by the Haves because of any number of facets: economic status, gender identity, race, sexual orientation, ethnicity and any other facet that Tulsa Soc Society deems as 'other.' The Greasers are a group of boys who have created a chosen family that reflects the true diversity of Tulsa.

Based on S.E. Hinton’s Novel and Francis Ford Coppola’s Film, Book by Adam Rapp, Music and Lyrics by Jamestown Revival and Justin Levine, Directed by Danya Taymor, Choreographed by Rick Kuperman & Jeff Kuperman.
