Description:

Equity actors for roles in Company's 2024-25 Season. See breakdown below. About the project: "A CASE FOR THE EXISTENCE OF GOD" SYNOPSIS: Ryan is undereducated, awful with money, and reeling from a painful divorce with the mother of his child, while Keith is polished, financially savvy, and the gay single caretaker of a foster daughter. When Ryan seeks Keith’s help to secure a loan and buy back twelve acres that formerly belonged to his family, the two men bond over their love of their daughters, as well as “a specific kind of sadness” that emerges in the gap between their dreams and their realities. A heartrending yet hopeful play about two men’s parallel desires to build a secure foundation for their families even as everything around them is falling apart. "THE RIPPLE, THE WAVE THAT CARRIED ME HOME" SYNOPSIS: Tony-nominated playwright Christina Anderson brings us a poignant, transporting, and quietly subversive story of racial justice, political legacy, and family forgiveness. Janice’s childhood was steeped in her parents’ activism as they fought for the integration of public swimming pools in 1960s Kansas and taught scores of Black children to swim. But Janice later steps away from her parents’ politics and starts her own life and family far away—until she’s pressed into speaking at a ceremony honoring her father. the ripple, the wave that carried me home is a moving exploration of a family’s response to injustice and a daughter’s reckoning with her political inheritance.
