Kander and Ebb’s songbook gets a vivid new life in this love letter to New York, featuring new lyrics from Lin-Manuel Miranda.
It’s 1946, the war is over, and a resurgent New York is beginning to rebuild. As steel beams swing overhead, a collection of artists has dreams as big and diverse as the city itself. But do these strivers have what it takes to survive this place, let alone to succeed?
