The show, with a book and lyrics by Steve Kluger, based on his novel, and music by Jason Howland, had its world premiere at Kansas City Repertory Theater last year.
He found his footing, appropriately enough, at Saratoga, the track he had grown up attending with his family as a young boy from nearby Mechanicville, N.Y.
