The Off-Broadway premiere of the musical Yank! featuring music by Joseph Zellnik, book and lyrics by David Zellnik, and directed by Igor Goldin, will begin performances February 16th with an official opening set for Wednesday, February 24th at The Theatre at Saint Peter's.

Set during World War II, Yank! chronicles the relationship between two servicemen long before "Don't-ask-don't-tell" was part of the national discussion.
