Rattlestick Playwrights Theater has extended its run of Samuel D. Hunter's Lewiston/Clarkston, directed by Davis McCallum. The production will now close December 16.

These two plays, focusing on two modern-day descendants of Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, are written to be in conversation with each other, and are performed together in a communal evening of gathering, watching, and breaking bread.

The cast of Lewiston includes Arnie Burton, Kristin Griffith, and Leah Karpel. The cast of Clarkston is made up of Heidi Armbruster, Edmund Donovan, and Noah Robbins.

The productions will feature set design by Dane Laffrey, costume design by Jessica Wegener Shay, lighting design by Stacey Derosier, and sound design by Fitz Patton.
