Cincinatti Aronoff Center, Water for Elephants, April 2026

Page 1


Dear Friends,

On behalf of the Cincinnati Arts Association and First Financial Bank Broadway in Cincinnati, presented by TriHealth, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the Aronoff Center for another memorable show in our 25/26 season.

We are delighted to present the beautiful national tour of Water for Elephants—a heartfelt story about resilience, belonging, and the unexpected places we find home. Based on the bestselling novel by Sara Gruen, this richly imagined musical invites audiences into the vibrant and unpredictable world of a traveling circus, where every performer carries a story and every moment shimmers with possibility.

At its center is Jacob, a young man searching for purpose after profound loss. He discovers a new life among a troupe of outsiders bound together by grit, compassion, and extraordinary talent. Through breathtaking movement, inventive staging, and a stirring score, Water for Elephants captures both the spectacle of the big top and the deeply human connections behind the scenes.

As you experience this remarkable production, you’ll be transported to a world where wonder and hardship exist side by side—and where hope, like the circus itself, refuses to stand still.

We also hope you will join us for our upcoming presentation of Suffs, the acclaimed new musical about the women who fought for the right to vote. Two-time Tony Award winner for Best Book and Best Score, this inspiring production brings a sense of urgency, heart, and a contemporary voice to a pivotal chapter in American history. Suffs is playing at the Aronoff Center May 12–17.

As always, thank you for your continued support and for sharing your valuable time with us. If we can assist you in any way, please don’t hesitate to reach out to one of our ushers or team members. May the magic, music, and humanity of Water for Elephants stay with you long after the big top folds.

Please enjoy the show!

SARA GRUEN, AUTHOR OF THE BESTSELLING WATER FOR ELEPHANTS

NOVEL,

ON THE STORY’S ENDURING POWER

STORY BY

Broadway.com Staff

The idea for Water for Elephants seized Sara Gruen’s imagination before she even realized she was looking for a new story.

She was midway through writing a different book when, on February 7, 2003, she opened the Chicago Tribune and came across a feature on Edward J. Kelty, a photographer who had traveled with America’s most storied circuses in the 1920s and ’30s. His black-and-white images captured clowns, acrobats, bearded ladies, giants and more. They offered a surreal glimpse into circus life at its peak. Gruen was taken with the subject matter.

Kelty had used a massive banquet camera, one that could photograph entire troupes in a single frame. His prints were wide and deep, packed with texture. You could look at them for a long time and still not see everything. Gruen did just that. She was drawn to the detail, the stillness and the sense of mystery in each photo.

“The pictures could show all of the Ringling people—the lineup—at once,” she recalls in an interview with Broadway.com Managing Editor Beth Stevens for “The Broadway Show with Tamsen Fadal.” “You could go and look and find the wrinkles in the stockings, the feather fronds, the detail. I was just staring at the pictures,” she says, still sounding amazed. “I stabbed it and I said, ‘This is what I’m doing next.’”

And she did. Gruen walked away from the novel she had been working on and threw herself into a different world entirely. She began researching circus history and chasing down every thread of inspiration she could find. The result was Water for Elephants, published in 2006. The novel follows Jacob Jankowski, a veterinary student whose life is upended by tragedy just before he finishes school. Alone and without direction, he winds up on a circus train and joins the Benzini Bros. Most Spectacular Show on Earth.

The story that unfolds is filled with hardship and grit but also moments of beauty and tenderness. It’s a look at life on the margins during the Great Depression, told through the eyes of someone trying to find a place to belong.

Water for Elephants, 2025.

“The message that it carries is about loving and caring for each other,” Gruen says.

That message came straight from her own life. Gruen has always cared deeply about animals, and her passion for their well-being runs throughout the book. One of its most poignant relationships is between Jacob and an elephant named Rosie. She’s at the center of how the novel examines the challenge of choosing compassion, especially when it doesn’t come easily.

Writing the book was an intense process. Gruen spent months gathering details that would help her get the world right. She wasn’t interested in imagining the circus from a distance. She wanted to step into it fully. That meant understanding the smells of the train cars, the routines of life after the show and the weight of constant movement while trying to feel at home.

As her research continued, Gruen became increasingly drawn to the inner workings of circus life. Behind the performances and animals were people who had either chosen that path or found themselves with nowhere else to go. They learned to survive together and rely on one another. By most definitions, they were outsiders, but within the circus they created something that felt like family.

“It’s about chosen family and looking after each other,” she says.

That idea has helped the story live on in different forms. The novel became a bestseller, then a major motion picture and now a stage musical. Gruen never imagined it would go this far, but she understands why it keeps finding new audiences. There’s something timeless in the story’s emotional center.

Bringing the story to the stage came with a different kind of challenge. The adaptation includes original music and circus-inspired movement, but what mattered most was keeping the heart of the story intact. That meant capturing the atmosphere and emotion that made the book resonate in the first place. The sense of closeness. The quiet relationships. The feeling of struggle and beauty existing side by side.

Seeing it all come together has been a powerful experience for Gruen.

“These people are geniuses,” she says of the creative team. “It just comes out with all the important bits intact.”

Adapting a story always involves making choices. Not everything from the original will make it into the new version, and the creative team brings their own vision to the process. Still, Gruen feels the stage production has captured what matters most. It stays true to the book without trying to replicate it word for word.

“It feels new to me,” she says. “And yet, it retains all of the good things that I wanted it to have. I think that’s a pretty magical combination.”

The show echoes the novel in a quieter way. Like the Benzini Bros. circus, the production travels from place to place, setting up, performing, then moving on. Along the way, the cast and crew become their own kind of family, creating something temporary that still manages to leave a mark.

To Gruen, that feels like more than a coincidence. It’s part of why the story still resonates. The golden age of the American circus may be gone, but the themes at the heart of Water for Elephants remain. People still want connection. They want to be seen, to feel safe, to find comfort in uncertain moments.

That’s what has kept the story alive. On the surface, it’s set under the big top. At its core, it’s about people trying to look out for one another. Gruen believes that’s what continues to draw readers in, and now audiences too. And it all began with a photograph. Or more than one. Gruen can still see the Kelty images that stopped her cold. There was something in the faces. Something quiet and impossible to shake.

“Those pictures just wouldn’t let go,” she says. And clearly, neither has the story.
