Casting has been announced for a staged reading of Merrill D. Jones’ Mrs. Streeter, to be offered on February 8 at the Dramatists Guild. Ward Nixon will direct the performance, presented by The African American Playwrights Exchange (AAPEX) and Jaz Dorsey.

The play focuses on a dominant, African-American woman, who obsessively directs the lives of her three grown children, even as she attempts to come to terms with the realities of her past.

The company will feature Terrance Epps (Hampton Cole), Larry Floyd (Jeffrey Streeter), Fulton Hodges (Charles Streeter), Kimberly JaJuan (Grace Streeter), RJ Kennedy (Narrator), Kimberlee Monroe (Irene Streeter), Malek O’Galvez (Tyler Anderson), Dee Spencer (Sarah Anderson), and Valarie Tekosky (Rita Harris). Mrs. Streeter was given a first reading at Pearl Studios in New York City, in 2008.
