The company will feature Jenny Bacon, Michael Chernus, Marin Ireland, Susan Pourfar. Miriam F. Glover, Deirdre O’Connell, and Danielle Skraastad.

The creative team will include scenic designer David Korins, costume designer Susan Hilferty, lighting and projection designer Alexander V. Nichols, and sound designer Darron L West.
