Igor Goldin directs a cast that includes Nancy Anderson (Wonderful Town, A Class Act), Jeffry Denman (White Christmas), Ivan Hernandez, Bobby Steggert (Ragtime, 110 in the Shade) Andrew Durand (Spring Awakening), Zak Edwards, Joseph Mederios, David Pearlman, Christopher Ruth and Tally Sessions. According to press notes, "Yank! chronicles the relationship between two servicemen long before "Don't-ask-don't-tell" was part of the national discussion. With a lively score inspired by the pop sounds of the 1940s, Yank! captures the spirit and exuberance of the era as it explores questions of prejudice, courage, and survival."
