It is based on the book by Craig Lucas with music by Marius de Vries and lyrics by Michael Mitnick and Lucas.

At the time of the Great Depression, the city of New York was a place of pressure, desperation, and hope at the same time. A fearless young actress, Ann Darrow, with a will of steel and dreams that reach as high as the Empire State Building, finds her big break in the form of Carl Denham, a filmmaker who promises to make her the star of his next big adventure movie. She joins Carl on a voyage to the mysterious Skull Island where they encounter an astonishing 20-foot-tall, 2,000-pound ape known only as Kong.
