The Irish Repertory Theatre has announced complete casting for Kelly Younger’s Banished Children of Eve, to run October 13 – December 5. Ciarán O’Reilly will direct the production, which will have choreography by Barry McNabb.

The play, adapted from Peter Quinn’s bestselling novel, centers on a diverse array of New Yorkers, including minstrel performers and Tammany Hall bosses, through a few days in the summer of 1863 when the Civil War had just entered its third bloody year.

The company will feature Malcolm Gets, David Lansbury, Christopher Borger, Rory Duffy, Amber Gray, Patrice Johnson, Graeme Malcolm, Kern McFadden, Jonny Orsini, and Amanda Quaid.

The creative team will include Charlie Corcoran (scenic design), Martha Hally (costume design), Brian Nason (lighting design), Ryan Rummery and Christian Fredrickson (sound design), and Bob Flanagan (puppet design).
