*A note for the actors: One of the exciting things about a new play process like this one is that the script is fluid and will continue to change through rehearsals. The playwright Kallan Dana will be in the room and responding to your work and feedback. She has also been revising in preparation for the start of rehearsals, and we now have a new draft that includes some moments of intimacy that did not exist in the previous draft. If you have questions or concerns please reach out to Gianna and she can share the new draft – which will likely continue to change.
