On Twitter, Alan Menken had this to say @@AIMenken

LEAP OF FAITH table reading today. Act 1. TOTALLY new approach. Everyone on board. Scary and exciting. Help!!!!! 16 hours ago

Based on the Steve Martin movie and featuring a score by eight-time Academy Award-winner Alan Menken, book by Janus Cercone with Glenn Slater, and lyrics by Glenn Slater, "Leap of Faith" was directed and choreographed by Tony Award-winner Rob Ashford in its premiere run in Loas Angeles at the Centre Theatre Group last fall.

LEAP OF FATH tells the story of Reverend Jonas Nightengale (played in LA by Raul Esparza), the consummate flim-flam man, and Marva (played in LA by Brooke Shields), the beautiful small-town woman and single mother who challenges everything Jonas believes in.

The team has an eye for Broadway in the coming season.
