The Iowa City Community Theatre presents “The Elephant Man” Feb. 23 – March 4. It’s a bit of a passion project for director Liz Tracey, who saw David Bowie in the title role on Broadway in the 80s.
She says that the role of John Merrick is especially tough, as the actor uses his body, not makeup or prostheses, to demonstrate the physical changes the character goes through.
