About Here Comes J. Edgar! A Comedy Musical
As the FBI’s formidable Director from 1924 to 1972, J. Edgar Hoover built an empire on secrets - collecting explosive intel on America’s most influential figures while guarding a hidden life of his own. Behind the public power and political muscle was a private world of clandestine romance, high-society parties, and his devoted relationship with longtime deputy Clyde Tolson. This bold, irreverent musical comedy dives into the scandal, ambition, and forbidden love that shaped Hoover’s legacy, proving just how far a sharp black dress and a single strand of pearls can take a man obsessed with control.
