Project: Theater is presenting the work. Garrett Ayers directs.
The cast will include Brian Frank, Erin Gorski, Joe Jung, Emily Moulton, Jenny Schutzman, Sarah Stockton and Brit Whittle. The artistic team includes Kevin Dodd (dramaturg/assistant director) and Joe Schiltz (composer).
According to production notes, "Throughout the play, Iizuka probes the nature of truth, the complexities of memory and the pain of regret as the circumstances and fates of those who survived her are explored."
Iizuka's works include 36 Views (The Public Theater) and War of the Worlds (a collaboration with Anne Bogart's SITI Company at BAM's Next Wave Festival in 2000), and Polaroid Stories; Aloha Say the Pretty Girls; Tattoo Girl and Skin.
