Hsu, Lewis and Rodriguez will all make their Broadway debuts in the production.
The ensemble also includes Tony Award nominee Andrew Durand, Tony Award nominee and Theatre World Award winner Amber Gray, Critics Choice Award nominee Harvey Guillén, and Josh Rivera. They will be joined by Renée Albulario, Anania, Boy Radio, Caleb Quezon, Andres Quintero, Larkin Reilly, Paul Soileau and John Yi.
