music by Marvin Hamlisch and
Ester Dean. The production re-
unites director and choreog-
rapher Jerry Mitchell with his
collaborators for “Kinky Boots”
including Tony Award winners
David Rockwell (Scenic Design),
Gregg Barnes (Costume Design)
and Kenneth Posner (Lighting
Design). The crew also includes
Nick Kenkel (Co-Choreography),
Randy Hansen (Sound Design),
Jason Lee Courson (Projection
Design), Drama Desk nominee
Josh Marquette (Hair and Wig
Design), Tony Award winner
Larry Hochman (Orchestrations)
and Telsey + Company (Casting).
The play had its World Premiere
in Chicago prior to coming to
New Jersey. With any luck, Half
Time will likely become the next
play to go from Paper Mill to
Broadway, joining a list that in-
cludes shows like Newsies!, Hon-
eymoon In Vegas, A Bronx Tale,
and Bandstand. The success of
productions like these earned
Paper Mill Playhouse the 2016
Regional Theatre Tony Award.
