Sonny Paladino is the music supervisor, arranger, and orchestrator; his Broadway credits Pippin and Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812.
“It was hugely satisfying to be given the opportunity to do this world premiere with the great folks at the Phoenix Theater, and with Sara and Sonny,” Viertel said in a statement. “The results were beyond anything I could have imagined. We set out to create a joy machine, a human story and a piece where New Orleans itself would become a principal character. But the amount of joy the audience took from it every night was no doubt the best part of all. I’m excited and thrilled that we are moving on to New York and look forward to getting back in a rehearsal room full of wonderful people.”
