Annie Golden, Amber Gray, Alexandra Henrikson, Irene Sofia Lucio and Erika Rolfsud will star in the world premiere of We Play For the Gods, to be presented by Women’s Project at the Cherry Lane Theatre, June 1-23, with an opening on June 11.

The show tells the tale of four ordinary women working in a research institute and one trickster goddess who messes around with their lives as only a deity can. It takes its title from a famous quote from Ellen Stewart, the late founder of La MaMa E.T.C.

The 14 artists who conceived and created the piece are Alexandra Collier, Elizabeth R. English, Charity Ballard, Jessi D. Hill, Andrea Kuchlewska, Manda Martin, Dominique Morisseau, Kristen Palmer, Sarah Rasmussen, Mia Rovegno, Melisa Tien, Nicole A. Watson, Stephanie Ybarra and Stefanie Zadravec. The animating forces behind the Lab are Julie Crosby and Associate Artistic Director Megan E. Carter.

The design team will include Jennifer Moeller (scenery), Moria Sine Clinton (costumes), Scott Bolman (lighting), and Stowe Nelson (sound).
