York Theatre Company has released the first production photos from its currently running world-premiere production of Rothschild & Sons, a new reworking of Jerry Bock, Sheldon Harnick, and Sherman Yellen's classic musical The Rothschilds. The limited engagement will open on October 18 and run through November 8. Jeffrey B. Moss directs the production, which features choreography by Denis Jones.
The production stars Tony nominee Robert Cuccioli (Jekyll & Hyde) as Mayer Rothschild, and Glory Crampton (Death Takes a Holiday) as his wife, Gutele. This one-act reimagining focuses on the relationships between Mayer, Gutele, and their five sons. Joining Cuccioli and Crampton in the cast are Peter Cormican, Jonathan Hadley, David Bryant Johnson, Christine LaDuca, Jamie LaVerdiere, Nicholas Mongiardo-Cooper, Mark Pinter, Curtis Wiley, and Christopher M. Williams.
With music by Bock, lyrics by Harnick, and book by Yellen, Rothschild & Sons features several songs not included in the original Rothschilds, with new lyrics by Harnick. The creative team includes James Morgan (set design), Carrie Robbins (costume design), Kirk Bookman (lighting design), and Jeff Marder (electronic music design).
