Alex Timbers is back to direct All Out after helming All In, which was regularly one of Broadway's top grossers throughout its run. Performances will also feature live, original music from soul-pop band Lawrence (fronted by Just in Time Tony nominee Gracie Lawrence) at all performances. The show will give the Nederlander a holiday tenant as we await the Broadway debut of Schmigadoon!, which begins performances next spring.
The upcoming production will also have scenic design by David Korins, costume design by Jennifer Moeller, lighting design by Jake DeGroot, sound design by Peter Hylenski, video design by Lucy Mackinnon, music supervision by Kris Kukul, casting by Taylor Williams, and production stage management by Stephen Milosevich. New Yorker cartoonist Emily Flake has also created illustrations for the limited run.
Seaview and Lorne Michaels are also back producing, with Micah Frank and Caroline Maroney again producing for Michaels' Broadway Video. Wagner Johnson Productions will again serve as general manager.
