Based on Homer Hickam's novel of the same name, the musical features a book co-written by the novelist and Carl Anthony Tramon and a score by Dan Tramon and Diana Belkowski.

Rocket Boys is directed by Legacy artistic director Mark Smith with choreography by Bethany Hayes Smith and musical direction by Jodi Cotton, John Michael d’Haviland and Joseph Baker.

Rocket Boys, according to press notes, concerns a "misfit coal-miner’s son who recruits some skeptical friends to join him in his quest to build rockets and conquer space."

"Rocket Boys" was the inspiration for the film "October Sky"; in fact, the latter is an anagram of the original title.
