The revival features Jonathan Tunick's full, 26-piece orchestration for the first time on Broadway since the 1979 original production, under the baton of three-time Tony winner Alex Lacamoire. The forthcoming album, to be released by Warner Music Group’s Arts Music and Reprise Records, is produced by Lacamoire and co-produced by director Thomas Kail, and can be pre-saved on Spotify here.

Matarazzo stars as Toby alongside Josh Groban's Sweeney and Ashford's Mrs. Lovett.
