Timbers is a two-time Tony Award nominee, who has directed 'Peter and the Starcatcher,' 'Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson,' 'The Pee-Wee Herman Show' and 'Rocky'.

The show will have sets by seven-time Tony winner Bob Crowley, choreography by Peter Darling, lighting by five-time Tony winner Natasha Katz and sound design by four-time Tony nominee Peter Hylenski.
