A previous incarnation of the musical was a hit of the 2005 New York Musical Theatre Festival.

Anderson has appeared on Broadway in Wonderful Town and A Class Act, and received Drama Desk nominations for her Off-Broadway performances in Fanny Hill and Jolson and Co.. She starred in the London production of Kiss Me, Kate and the PBS version of the musical. Anderson has also appeared in many editions of the Broadway by the Year series and is a frequent performer at Broadway at Birdland.

Denman starred in the NYMF production of Yank! He is currently appearing in Los Angeles in the Reprise! Broadway Best's production of On Your Toes. His many stage credits include The Producers, How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, White Christmas, and Cats.
