Paper Mill Playhouse's world premiere of the Broadway-aimed musical The Sting is set to open in New Jersey April 8 after beginning performances March 29.

Set in 1936 Chicago, The Sting tells the tale of a pair of con men, small town grifter Johnny Hooker and big-time hustler Henry Gondorff, who plot to bring down the city’s most corrupt racketeer. Based on the 1973 film, the musical features a book by Bob Martin and music and lyrics by Mark Hollmann and Greg Kotis with Connick, Jr. The score also contains music by Scott Joplin, including “The Entertainer.”
