Hill serves as "The Host" for the evening, leading the audience through the heat and glamour of the Harlem Renaissance using the words of Langston Hughes. At a recent preview that included a performance by the 17-piece Jazz at Lincoln Center All-Stars, Playbill spoke to the three stars about their history with jazz, and why they're excited to bring the music to Broadway.
