Alicia Keys will compose original music for the Broadway premiere of the critically-acclaimed play by Lydia R. Diamond and directed by Kenny Leon.

“As someone who walked up and down this boulevard as a young girl, I cannot describe the thrill of having the opportunity of composing songs for a Broadway show,” said Alicia Keys. “It’s honestly been a dream come true. I love the humor and humanity of Stick Fly, and I'm so excited to be a part of the emotional journey this show will take audiences on.”
