The cast features such names as Eden Espinosa (Wicked), Kevin Anderson (Death of a Salesman), Cleavant Derricks (Dreamgirls), Ramona Keller (Caroline, or Change), and Karen Olivo (Rent).
The production is directed by Jeff Calhoun and produced by Calhoun and music supervisor John McDaniel. A special open-rehearsal press preview was presented Sept. 9 in Manhattan.
