Live music will be provided by Raymond Sicam (cello), Brent Arnold (cello) Sally Wall (oboe), Mark Dover (clarinet/bass clarinet), Pinky Weitzman (viola), and John Murchison (bass). Musical Director is Dave Malloy.

The design team will include Mimi Lien (set design), Paloma Young (costume design), Bradley King (lighting design), and Matthew Hubbs (sound design).
