Originally starring 10-time Tony Award winner Tommy Tune, this one-man musical tells the story of Ichabod Crane, the gangly schoolteacher who is tormented by love and fear. It is the late 1800’s and Ichabod is running for president of Manhattan’s prestigious Knickerbocker Society and must fend off rumors that he was chased out of the small Dutch village Sleepy Hollow by a Headless Horseman. Ichabod takes us back in time via song and dance to his Sleepy Hollow youth and brings those characters to life, including his love Katrina and her bullish suitor Brom Bones.
