Set in 1888 Imperial British India, The Man Who Would Be King is a period musical based on Rudyard Kipling’s novella of the same name. This musical adaptation follows two rogues who chase imperial dreams into the remote Hindu Kush, where they attempt to rule a mythical culture as kings. Their hunger for power leads to betrayal and catastrophe, leaving one man to return home and tell a journalist the compelling story of greed, hubris, star-crossed romance, and empire undone.
