The weekend of performances is the first of the venue's fall Musicals in Mufti series, which presents "musical theatre gems in staged concert performances."

Coco features cabaret veteran Andrea Marcovicci in the title of role of Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel with Jessica Grové (Sunday in the Park with George) as Noelle and Tony nominee Charles Kimbrough (Accent on Youth) as Louis Greif.
