Chris Weikel’s Penny Penniworth, which was seen in the New York International Fringe Festival in 2003, will be presented in a expanded production from Emerging Artists Theatre, October 1-November 1 at TADA Theatre. It will be directed by Mark Finley.

The creative team includes costume designer Goody, lighting designer Jennifer Granrud, scenic designer Tim McMath, composer Peter Saxe and sound designer Aaron Blank.
