Go inside the set construction process for The Preacher's Wife at Alliance Theatre in this all-new video.
Tituss Burgess spoke to People about his new musical based on the film The Preacher's Wife, which is currently running at the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta.
Every detail of design and it's execution is the epitome of Broadway bold and gold.

There's a lot to take in and worth teasing out into another intermission and third act with Sunday dinner.
The reviews are starting to roll in for The Alliance Theatre's world premiere musical, THE PREACHER’S WIFE, inspired by the 1996 film of the same name
