Sutton, English and Humanistic Studies, is producing the New York production, which will stage two shows Friday, July 19 and one show Sunday, July 21 at The Studio at Theatre Row in Manhattan. Local actors Brandon and Joy Rockstroh, who played lead roles in last summer’s play, will have smaller parts in the New York production, which features actors who have acted on Broadway and in first national tours for various productions.
