June 21 (UPI) -- The New York stage musical, Dead Outlaw, has announced it will play its final performance on June 29.
The show -- which has music and lyrics by David Yazbek and Erik Della Penna -- opened at Broadway's Longacre Theatre on April 27.
David Cromer directed the production and Itamar Moses wrote the book.
"Elmer McCurdy was an ambitious, turn-of-the-20th-century outlaw whose death at the hands of a Western posse ended a life of failed crime and alcoholism and began a brilliant career as a mummified side-show attraction that traveled the USA for decades," a synopsis said.
Even legends get laid to rest.
