Caverly will star as Tobias Ragg and Beadle Bamford alongside Fred Beam in the title role, Anne Tomasetti as Mrs. Lovett, Heba Toulan as Johanna, Monique Holt as Adolfo Pirelli and the Beggar Woman, Hector Reynoso as Judge Turpin, and Christopher Tester as Anthony.

Summer for the City has been curated to help deepen Lincoln Center's service to particular communities, including the Latinx/e, Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI), Black, Indigenous, and LGBTQIA+ communities-along with expanding offerings for families with concerts, workshops, Storytimes, and Family Dance Days. The season also offers a multitude of events that celebrate and center Deaf and disabled identity.
