The full cast is set for National Headquarters' debut production, Angelus Novus, October 2-12, at AV-aerie. Conceived and created by Angeline Gragasin, the piece will be directed by Richard Newman.

Based on Paul Klee's 1920 painting, "Angelus Novus," the piece uses original live and electronic music, architectural costumes, and large object acrobatics to depict power struggle, truth-telling, and social activism in an ailing urban community.

The cast will feature Ryland Barton, Angeline Gragasin, Angela Horchem, Julia Miller, Brian Moore, Tyler Smith, and John Stokvis.
