BroadwayWorld joined the cast in the studio and brings you photos from the recording session below!

The Visit cast album will be a joint release of two labels: Broadway Records and Yellow Sound Label and will be co-executive produced by Hunter Arnold, Carl Daikeler and Sandi Moran.

The cast is led by Tony Award winners Chita Rivera as Claire Zachanassian and Roger Rees as Anton Schell. The Broadway cast also features Jason Danieley as Frederich Kuhn, David Garrison as Peter Dummermut, Mary Beth Peil as Matilde Schell, George Abud as Karl Schell, Matthew Deming as Louis Perch, Diana Dimarzio as Annie Dummermut, Tony Award-nominee Rick Holmes as Father Josef, Tom Nelisas Rudi, Chris Newcomer as Jacob Chicken, Aaron Ramey as Otto Hahnke, John Riddle as Young Anton, Elena Shaddow as Ottilie Schell, Timothy Shew as Hans Nusselin and Michelle Veintimilla as Young Claire.

Based on the satirical play by Friedrich Dürrenmatt as adapted by Maurice Valency, The Visit features music and lyrics by the John Kander & Fred Ebb, book by four-time Tony Award-winning playwright Terrence McNally, choreography by Tony Award-nominee Graciela Daniele,s cenic design by Scott Pask, costume design by Ann Hould Ward, lighting design by Japhy Weideman, sound design by Dan Moses Schreierand orchestrations by Larry Hochman with music direction and arrangements by David Loud. The Visit is helmed by Tony Award-winning director John Doyle.

In her juiciest role yet, Rivera is Claire Zachanassian, the world's wealthiest woman, who returns home to Anton Schell (Roger Rees) who captured her heart then shattered her dreams. What she does next shocks the town and makes for the most thrilling and intriguing musical in years. From the team that brought you "Cabaret", "Chicago", "Kiss of the Spider Woman", this tale of romance, seduction and betrayal proves that revenge is the best revenge.
