Helmed by Tony-nominated director Christopher Renshaw, whose work on The King and I is still the stuff of legend, this show promises to be an emotional spectacle. Based on a book by Aurin Squire (This Is Us, The Good Fight), James Monroe Iglehard, the Tony-winning actor who originated the role of Aladdin on Broadway, will take on the role of Louis Armstrong. Of course, the real star is the music – Armstrong's timeless classics, reimagined for the stage, are sure to be a highlight.
