Brandon Ivie, assistant director of Broadway's A Christmas Story, The Musical and First Date, will helm Jasper, which features a score by Oliver and a book by Oliver and Foster.

Lorin Latarro, who choreographed Broadway's Waiting For Godot and Scandalous, will choreograph the limited engagement, which will play through April 13.

Here's how Jasper in Deadland is billed: "In this original musical, 16-year-old Jasper journeys through the Afterlife on a mission to save his best friend, Agnes. On his thrill-ride through a hybrid underworld, Jasper encounters demons, gods, mortals and monsters from Greek, Egyptian, Roman, and Norse mythology, learning what it means to die and questioning what it means to live."

Jasper in Deadland was originally commissioned in 2011 by the Pasadena Musical Theatre Program. It has received subsequent developmental readings through Pace University and the York Theatre Company's NEO Reading Series, as well as a recent one-night concert presentation at 54 Below as part of RSO FEST.

Oliver is the recipient of both the Jonathan Larson Award as well as a Richard Rodgers Award for musical theatre.

Foster has previously written the books to four musicals, including the Outer Critics Circle-nominated Summer of '42 and the upcoming Circus in Winter. He is a Tony nominee for his performance in Little Shop of Horrors and will appear in the upcoming The Bridges of Madison County.
