The musical in concert form, with a full band, brings to life the shared journey of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel, two legendary musicians who formed the most famous folk-rock duo of all time.
The story of The Simon & Garfunkel Story begins with the duo’s humble beginnings as Tom & Jerry, telling how they rose to become one of the best-selling acts of the 1960s, and stretches to their dramatic split in 1970. The climax of the show is their iconic reunion and legendary concert in Central Park, New York, in 1981, attended by over half a million fans.
This lavish musical features state-of-the-art video production, photographs, and original film footage, alongside timeless hits that Simon & Garfunkel recorded together: “Mrs. Robinson” (from the legendary 1967 film The Graduate), “The Sound of Silence,” “The Boxer,” “Cecilia,” “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” “Homeward Bound,” and many more.
Simon & Garfunkel sold over 100 million albums, won 10 Grammy Awards, and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990. In 2003, they received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, and the following year, their song “The Sound of Silence” was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.
