"Two imprisoned teenagers, one black, one white, form a perilous bond," press notes state. "As the young women serve time, they forge a plan for survival. When the outside world proves even more dangerous than the jail itself, their private world becomes an untenable practice ground for their new lives. And I and Silence explores the fierce dreams of youth and the brutal reality of adulthood in 1950's America."
The creative team includes Rachel Hauck (scenic design), Clint Ramos (costume design), Bradley King (lighting design), Elisheba Ittoop (sound design), Charlotte Fleck (dialect coach) and David Anzuelo (fight direction). Amanda Michaels is the production stage manager. Casting is by Telsey + Company, Karyn Casl, CSA.
