It is directed by Stafford Arima and choreographed by Christopher Gattelli.

The cast also features Jay Garcia, Jesse JP Johnson, Ryan J. Ratliff, and Ryan Strand. Craig has previously played Matthew in St. Louis and Cincinatti. His other stage credits include Only Children, Things To Ruin: The Songs Of Joe Iconis, Edges, High School Musical, and Jesus Christ Superstar.
