Underground tells the lesser-known story of the Underground Railroad that led South, tracing the journey of enslaved individuals who escaped to freedom by crossing the Rio Grande into Mexico. The narrative follows a freedom seeker and an unexpected ally as they navigate danger, forge trust, and build a connection that defies borders and expectations.

This hip-hop musical uses live-looping, rhythm, and movement to reimagine a vital chapter of American history. After successful runs in multiple cities, the production now makes its New York City debut.

Praised as “thrilling” by The Washington Post and “genius in motion” by the San Francisco Chronicle, Underground brings a powerful historical narrative to the stage with urgency and innovation.
