Finally, we’re thrilled to announce that Joy Woods will be taking on the role of Grete! Woods recently made her Broadway debut as “Catherine Parr” in SIX! Some of her other credits include: “Chiffon” in the current revival of Little Shop of Horrors, and a member of the ensemble of Mack and Mabel (Encores!) and Ratatouille: The Tik Tok Musical. Welcome to the Samsa Family!

We’re pleased to announce that Mother will be played by the very talented, Pearl Sun! Sun has had a remarkable history on the Broadway stage with roles in “Come From Away,” “If/Then,” and “Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas.” We’re so excited to see her join the Samsa family!

10/04/2022

Dearest Father…We’re thrilled to announce you will be played by none other than Paul Whitty! Paul Whitty is an incredible talent, and has been in the original cast of several Broadway musicals, including: "Gettin’ the Band Back Together", "Amélie", and "Once". He also played “Oz” in the hit musical "Come From Away". We’re psyched to have him join the Samsa Family!

Welcome aboard Mona!

Franz Kafka/Gregor Samsa is the titular character of our show. He acts as a sort of guide as the audience navigates his past, present, and the impact of his stories. Heart wrenching and hilarious, we’re pleased to announce that Franz/Gregor will be played by Will Connolly! Connolly’s history on stage is an exciting one, from making his broadway debut in the Tony-award-winning musical “Once,” playing the original Jeremy in “Be More Chill,” to co-writing/composing the musical “Fly By Night” for which he received a Drama Desk nomination. Welcome to the Kafka family!

07/04/2022

Meet Alan Muraoka, our fearless director! You may know him from his 21 seasons on Sesame Street, or his impressive and expansive history on Broadway! This includes roles in "Aladdin", the revival of "Pacific Overtures", "Mail", "Sh**un, the Musical", "My Favorite Year", "The King and I", and, finally, "Miss Saigon", in which Muraoka had the lead role of “Engineer!”

We’re “buggin' out” about this two time Emmy nominee joining our team!

06/04/2022

We’re blown away by the opportunities coming our way! Kafka is heading back to the Big Apple where we’ll be having a developmental work session and industry presentation with some of New York’s best and brightest. Tell Gregor to break one of his many legs!

Keep checking back as we introduce some of the new additions to our team!

05/04/2022

Stay tuned for updates about our cast and crew!!

Review: With ‘Jagged Little Pill,’ They Finally Fixed the Jukebox

Congrats to Van Dean, president of Broadway Records and co-producer of Jagged Little Pill, on a rave review and fantastic opening night!

Alanis Morissette’s “ironic” fury finds a perfect Broadway musical setting in Diablo Cody’s fiery indictment of, well, everything.

Feel like something off-beat? ‘Kafka’s Metamorphosis: The Musical!’ is for you (Review)

"What would you do if you woke up one morning and discovered that during the night you had turned into a large, ugly insect, replete with a hard shell and creepy multiple legs? Would you immediately launch into a series of challenging calisthenics, or how about singing a medley of Broadway tunes?"

A syracuse.com review from our Auburn show last weekend! Be sure to come check out the last leg of our tour Thursday and Friday at Auburn Public Theater!

Review: 'Kafka' musical at Auburn theater a fantastic mix of comedy, creeps

The first review from our Auburn Public Theater show! We'll be back for more shows this Thursday and Friday!

Kafka's Metamorphosis: The Musical

The word "Kafkaesque" is commonly misused, but most understand it to mean some mixture of complicated and unsettling.
