The creative team features Tony winner Rachel Hauck in set design; four-time Tony nominee Michael Krass in costume design; two-time Tony winner Bradley King in lighting design; Tony winners Nevin Steinberg and Jessica Paz in sound design; David Neumann in choreography; Liam Robinson in music supervision and vocal arrangements; Tony winners Michael Chorney and Todd Sickafoose in arrangements and orchestrations; Ken Cerniglia in dramaturgy; and Stewart/Whitley in casting.
Singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell’s folk- and jazz-infused musical, inspired by two intertwining myths of gods and mortals, began as a theatrical concert performed by Mitchell. The show debuted at New York Theatre Workshop in 2016 before playing Canada, London, and, eventually, Broadway. The Broadway production resumed performances September 2 at the Walter Kerr Theatre.
