A sweeping musical adaptation of Alexandre Dumas’ beloved novel.

Monte Cristo tells the epic story of a man wrongfully imprisoned who returns richer, wiser, and bent on vengeance. But as his carefully orchestrated plan unfolds, he must face the ultimate question: is justice enough without love?

Developed in The York’s New2NY series, this production reunites the writer of Desperate Measures (Drama Desk winner for best music and lyrics) and the team that brought you Penelope for a thrilling tale of revenge, redemption, and enduring romance.

MONTE CRISTO will play the Theatre at St. Jean’s, 150 East 76th Street, in New York City.
