Megan McGinnis (Side Show), Julie Benko (Fiddler on the Roof), Amie Bermowitz (Ruthless), Aaron Galligan-Stierle (The Phantom of the Opera), Zal Owen (Fiddler on the Roof), Sarah Beth Pfeifer (The Lightning Thief), and Jim Stanek (Fun Home) will star in Goldstein.

Renee Alexander and Alex Elmaleh (stage managers).
Goldstein is described as follows: "Louis Goldstein has written a tell-all family memoir. While it is a best-seller, his family claims that it isn't true. Goldstein goes back in time to uncover 90 years of secrets, sacrifice, and love lost and found. This original musical is a celebration of the challenges and triumphs of an immigrant Jewish-American family."
