Cast and creative team information has been announced for the House Theatre of Chicago production of Rose and the Rime, set to run at the Chopin Theatre, February 19-April 11. Nathan Allen will direct.

Written by Allen, Chris Mathews, and Jake Minton, this piece is set in the tiny Michigan town of Radio Falls, which has been trapped in perpetual winter for a generation. The last moment of heated passion brought the town its only remaining youth, a girl named Rose. It is up to her to save Radio Falls from the curse of the Rime Witch.

The cast will star Carolyn Defrin as Rose, and feature Maria McCullough, Mike Smith, and Joey Steakley. Lucy Carapetyan, Chelsea Keenan, Stephanie Polt, Brandon Ruiter, Brett Schneider, Dana Tretta, and Zeke Sulkes will round out the ensemble.

The creative team will include Debbie Baer (costume design), Josh Horvath (sound design), Lee Keenan (lighting design), Kevin O’Donnell (composer), Collette Pollard (scenic/prop design), and Tommy Rapley (choreography).
