The book for this show, by Peter Ullian, was commissioned by Virginia Spiegel Criste in the year 2000. After completion of the book, Joel Derfner, composer, and Len Schiff, lyricist, were brought into the project.

The process of developmental readings began at New York University in June 2003. It was read again at Shetler Studios in October 2003. In April 2004, an abbreviated version was presented at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles. It was then read again in August 2004 at New York University.

In December 2005, Jeremy Dobrish was added to the creative team as director for the mounting of another reading at the Zipper Theatre in New York. Thereafter, the piece was featured by Melting Pot Theatre Company in New York City as part of their series Preludes: New Musicals in Concert for three (3) nights during February 2006. The show's development then continued with another reading at the Village Theatre in Issaquah, Washington on June 2, 3, and 4, 2006.

One year later, the piece's first full-scale regional production was completed at the Village Theatre in Issaquah, Washington, from June 1 through 17, 2007. The show ran to very enthusiastic audiences.

Snap-Two Productions now plans to partner with Amas Musical Theatre in New York City to produce a five week Off-Broadway run starting in February 2010, and running through to the later part of March 2010.
