SteppingStone Theatre Company has announced casting for Christopher G. Roberts’ Reflections of a Heart, to run June 11-27 at the Clurman Theatre on Theatre Row. Playwright Roberts will also direct the production.

The play is based on the true story of Isaac Woodard, Jr., at one time the most highly decorated African-American WWII veteran whose 1946 beating and subsequent blinding by police, hours after being discharged from the US Army, ignited a heated civil rights battle in South Carolina and around the nation.

The company will feature Mary Ruth Baggot, Reginald L. Barnes, Gail Merzer Behrens, Chanel Carroll, Mark Ellmore, Kevin Green, Gillian Glasco, Jim Heaphy, Heather Massie, Jonathan Miles, Christopher G. Roberts, Robert Spence, Michael Vincent, and David Wirth.

The creative team will include Jito Lee (scenic design), Sarah Cubbage (costume design), Kayla Globe (lighting design), and David Lawson (sound design).
