Songs from Monte Cristo: A New Musical—based on Alexandre Dumas’ novel and the 19th century play by Charles Fechter—will be released in digital and streaming formats via Center Stage Records July 10.
The five-track recording highlights the cast of the 2026 Off-Broadway production, including Adam Jacobs as the wrongfully imprisoned Edmund Dantes; Sierra Boggess as Mercedes, the love of his life; and Norm Lewis as Villefort, the man who sends Edmund to prison and who is haunted by
his decision. The company also features Danny Rutigliano as Caderousse and the Abbe Faria, Tony winner Karen Ziemba as Carconte, Daniel Yearwood as Fernand, Stephanie Jae Park as Haydee, James Judy as Danglars, Kate Fitzgerald as Eugenie, Jadon Lopez as Albert, and Eliseo Roman as Morrel.
Monte Cristo features a book and lyrics by Tony nominee Peter Kellogg and music by Stephen Weiner. Peter Flynn directed the musical, which tells the story of a man wrongfully imprisoned who
returns richer, wiser, and bent on vengeance. But as his carefully
orchestrated plan unfolds, he must face the ultimate question: Is justice enough without love?
The recent Off-Broadway staging was produced by The York Theatre in association with Willette Klausner. The new recording is produced by David Hancock Turner and Joanna Lynne Staub, with Van Dean serving as executive producer. To pre-add or pre-save the digital album, click here.
