Jerry Mitchell will direct and choreograph the workshop, which is scheduled for September 11–October 6. Pretty Woman features a book by the late Marshall and J.F. Lawton (the film's screenwriter) and a score by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance. Will Van Dyke serves as the music director.
Mitchell, a two-time Tony winner for Best Choreography for Kinky Boots and the 2004 revival of La Cage aux Folles, recently said that the new musical, about a call girl whose life is transformed when a millionaire businessman falls in love with her, is aiming for Broadway in the 2018–2019 season.
Casting for the upcoming lab is by Telsey & Company; the general manager is 101 Productions, Ltd.
