Wanted
About the Show
Texas, 1893 — a time gone, but not forgotten. Twin sisters determined to save their family take fate into their own hands. Hiding who they are and taking what they’re owed, they straddle the line between two Americas.
A new Broadway musical that brings a defiant legacy to life, Wanted is the mostly-true story of Mary and Martha Clake, two extraordinary women who went from farm girls to outlaws to legends. WANTED (previously Gun & Powder) features book and lyrics by Angelica Chéri (a real-life descendant of the Sisters Clarke), music by Ross Baum, and direction by Obie Award Winner and Tony Nominee Stevie Walker-Webb (Ain’t No Mo’ on Broadway). This New York Times Critic’s Pick is “a thrillingly original new musical” with “a powerhouse score.”

The Cort Theatre was built as a venue for producer John Cort’s productions in the early 1900’s. Peg o’ My Heart was its premiere performance in 1912.
The Shubert Organization eventually took ownership of the venue and had it completely restored. The theater was renamed in honor of James Earl Jones in 2022.
