Their initial friendship develops into a brief but passionate affair which has consequences on all of their lives.
The production will also have designs by Jon Bausor, lighting design by Tim Lutkin, sound design by Gregory Clarke, and musical supervision and direction by Tom Murray.
Brown won Tony Awards for Best Original Score and Best Orchestrations.
