Directed by Ron Daniels, Front Page will run July 4-15 on the Main Stage. The creative team also features costume design by Linda Cho, lighting design by Charles Foster, scenic design by Riccardo Hernandez and sound design by Nick Borisjuk.

In The Front Page, production notes read, "the court press room is full of poker-playing reporters, all waiting to cover the execution of radical leftist Earl Williams. Top reporter Hildy Johnson is engaged and planning to leave the life of chasing headlines and move to New York. When Williams escapes from the inept Sheriff, Hildy’s scheming editor - Walter Burns - tempts Johnson to stay and write the story." The comedy debuted in 1928.
