Additional casting for the Broadway production of Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson has been announced.

Written and directed by Alex Timbers, with music and lyrics by Michael Friedman, the show will begin previews at the Bernard Jacobs Theatre on September 20 in anticipation of an official opening on October 13. Full casting will be announced shortly.

In addition to the previously announced Benjamin Walker, who will be reprising his performance in the title role, the company will also feature nine other members of the original off-Broadway company: Maria Elena Ramirez (Rachel), Jeff Hiller (John Quincy Adams), Lucas Near-Verbrugghe (Martin Van Buren), Ben Steinfeld (Monroe), Greg Hildreth (Red Eagle), Kate Cullen Roberts (Elizabeth), Emily Young (Female Soloist), and James Barry (Male Soloist).

The production features scenic design by Donyale Werle, costume design by Emily Rebholz, lighting design by Justin Townsend, sound design by Bart Fasbender, and choreography by Danny Mefford — all of whom are repeating their duties from the Off-Broadway run.
