The cast also features Michael McCormick, Cole Burden, Lianne Marie Dobbs, Victoria Huston-Elem, and Gary Troy.
The production has musical direction by James Sampliner, choreography by Kelli Barclay, set design by Paul Tate dePoo III, costume design by Amy Clark, lighting design by Jason Lyons, and sound design by Keith Caggiano.
