The play, rehearsed at LHPAI, is an original production written by Seattle Parks & Rec staff member Isiah Anderson, Jr. with music by Seattle singer/songwriter Michelle Lang and choreography by Tyrone Crosby.
The play’s seven performances at the Seattle Repertory Theatre begin on August 20 and run twice daily (1 pm and 7 pm) through August 22. The final performance takes place on August 23 at 3 pm.
