Though the Broadway production of Bonnie & Clyde will play its final performance Dec. 30, Playbill.com apprehended a few of the stars of the Frank Wildhorn musical to launch our new Playbill Playlist series.

Laura Osnes and Jeremy Jordan, the musical's titular stars, along with Claybourne Elder and Melissa van der Schyff, who play Buck Barrow and Blanche Barrow, respectively, were asked to choose their favorite interpretations of Frank Wildhorn's songs and share why they made the list.

You can also download the songs via the iTunes store (when available).

Jeremy Jordan (Clyde Barrow):

  • "What You Call A Dream" from Bonnie & Clyde
  • "Vienna" from Rudolf
  • "Sarah" from The Civil War



Laura Osnes (Bonnie Parker):

  • "Someone Like You" (Linda Eder's version from the Jekyll & Hyde [cast album]). I love this song so much, I actually have a demo recording of me singing it when I was 12! I grew up listening to the album and watching the DVD!
  • "This Never Happened Before," which was actually a song that was cut from Bonnie & Clyde, so it can't be found anywhere, but it's SOOOOOO lovely and was always my favorite song that Frank wrote for the show. I was so sad when it got the cut.
  • "Must Be My Lucky Day," which I believe is on one of Linda's albums. I haven't heard a recording of it, but I've sung the song with Frank and I LOVE it. Definitely one of my favorites of his!
