Director's Note
This bowl-of-sunshine of a musical holds a special place in my heart. Not only was it my directorial debut in New York City, but I also met a special group of people on it that, to this day, I still call friends.
The journey of Altar Boyz was years in the making, however, the “sturm und drang” of getting the show from the page to the stage proved how passionate producers and the rich talents of a group of authors and a handful of performers could make it happen.
