In addition, the musical will also feature Kevin Greene, Tim Hartman, Jodie Langel, Jay Lusteck, Les Minski, Walter O'Neil, Rob Richardson, Rebecca Robbins, Wayne Schroder, and Janine DiVita.
The creative team will include Warren Carlyle (choreography), Tony Walton (scenery), David Zinn (costumes), Richard Pilbrow (lights), Carl Casella and Domonic Sack (sound), Wendy Bobbitt Cavett (musical supervision), Jerry Steichen (musical direction), and Edward B. Kessel and Bob Krogstad (orchestrations).
