A co-production with Off-Broadway's Vineyard Theatre, Kid Victory is directed by Liesl Tommy. Performances continue through March 22.

The new musical is centered on the life of a teenager following his year-long absence from home. According to the Signature, "Profoundly changed, Luke and his parents struggle to adjust to life following his disappearance. Only finding solace with Emily (played by Litzsinger), the quirky proprietor of an offbeat garden shop, Luke grapples with a past undone and a coming of age that came too late to a boy who just wants to fade away."

Kid Victory marks the second collaboration between Kander and Pierce. Their first musical, The Landing, premiered at The Vineyard Theatre in 2013 and received critical acclaim.

The production also features choreography by Christopher Windom, musical supervision by David Loud, music direction by Jesse Kissel, orchestrations by Michael Starobin, scenic design by Clint Ramos, costume design by Kathleen Geldard, wig design by Anne Nesmith, lighting design by David Weiner, sound design by Lane Elms.
