Smith, and Alex Stage.
The production team includes James Schuette (scenic design), Virgil Johnson (costume design), James F. Ingalls (lighting design), and Josh Schmidt (sound design and original music).
Galati’s many directing credits include Ragtime, The Grapes of Wrath, Endgame, Homebody/Kabul, and You Can’t Take It With You.
