Prior to its official debut in the off-Broadway, the stage play was once launched at the Hampstead Theater and Royal National Theater in London.
The Elephant Man is a play, which tells a story about the life of Joseph Merrick (regarded as John Merrick on the script), who had lived in the Victorian generation and is best known by his extreme malformation of his whole body.
The show starred few stage actors including David Bowie, Bradley Cooper, Bruce Davison and Mark Hamill. Notably, the protagonist of the stage play portraying as John Merrick is not using any prosthetic make-up, but portrays a completely different physical form and the show makes the audiences think and imagine the Merrick’s appearance being described as a physically deformed person.
