The theatre, in partnership with The League of Live Stream Theatre, is also live streaming three performances December 13-14.

Joe Brancato is directing the production, which features scenic design by Christian Fleming, costume design by Gregory Gale, lighting design by Jose Santiago, sound design by Max Silverman, wig design by Bobbie Zlotnik, and dance consulting by Ryan Kasprzak.
