The Grinning Man is an English musical with a book by Carl Grose, music by Tim Phillips and Marc Teitler, and lyrics by Carl Grose, Tom Morris, Tim Phillips and Marc Teitler, based on Victor Hugo's novel The Man Who Laughs. It premiered in 2016 at the Bristol Old Vic Theater, and opened on the West End in 2017. The original Old Vic production was streamed on Youtube during the 2020 COVID 19 pandemic.The Grinning Man tells the story of Grinpayne, a man whose face was permanently carved into a hideous grin one snowy and terrible night when he wasn't even 10 years old. 20 years later, he, his love Dea, a blind girl, and their adoptive father Ursus travel to the capital city to join the freak show-style fair that resides there. Grinpayne and Dea perform in a dramatized version of the events surrounding Grinpayne's maiming, which includes how he found Dea as a baby in the snow and how Ursus found them and decided to raise them both. Grinpayne wants desperately to know who he is, where he comes from, and who did this horrible thing to him, but he remembers nothing from the night he was cut or before besides what Ursus has told him. But as The Grinning Man's show becomes more popular with those who come to the fair, new secrets come to light, and old memories can't be held down any longer. | |

Darker and Edgier: Most of Grinpayne's backstory is far more traumatic than it was in the novel (which still involves a young boy's face being carved into). | |

Related in the Adaptation: David is now Josiana and the Queen's brother, rather than just Josiana's fiancè. And yes, that means what you think it does. (This also reverses a plot point from the book, where he was Gwynplaine's brother instead.) | |

Alternate History | |
| The Grinning Man (Theatre) / int_a86069f | comment |
Alternate History: The show handwaves Hugo's original vaguely historical setting into an entire alternate version of England where the royal palaces are located in Catford (a suburb in real life) and the real world's stately Trafalgar Square is instead sleazy Trafalgar Fair. The demented royal family take the place of the historical King James and Queen Anne, with Angelica being outright mad as opposed to Anne's historical depression. | |

Dramatic Unmask | |
| The Grinning Man (Theatre) / int_d4bf11d1 | comment |
Dramatic Unmask: Grinpayne takes off his mask several times during the show, each more dramatic than the last. Barkilphedro also dramatically unmasks himself as the person who's been torturing Ursus. | |

Dark and Troubled Past | |
| The Grinning Man (Theatre) / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Dark and Troubled Past: Grinpayne and Dea, most obviously. A few throwaway lines at the beginning indicate that Angelica may have had one of these as well. | |
