Young Nees; Arthur Lewis, a.k.a. Arthur the Geniuses; Kaila Mullady, a.k.a. Kaiser Rözé; Chris Sullivan, a.k.a. Shockwave; and Anthony Veneziale, a.k.a. Two Touch. Special guests at select performances may include Lin-Manuel Miranda, Christopher Jackson, Daveed Diggs, James Monroe Iglehart, Wayne Brady, Ashley Pérez Flanagan, Bill Sherman, and Utkarsh Ambudkar.

Freestyle Love Supreme is directed by Thomas Kail. It features set design by Beowulf Boritt, costume design by Lisa Zinni, lighting design by Jeff Croiter, and sound design by Nevin Steinberg. The Broadway run is produced by Kail, Miranda, Jenny and Jon Steingart, and Jill Furman. Kail, Miranda, and Veneziale founded the group in 2004.

In the show, the performers and special guests spin cues from the audience into humorous bits, instantaneous songs and riffs, and fully realized musical numbers.
