Production Notes

Performed February 28–March 16, 2025, timed to overlap Women’s History Month. Original CST promotional graphic explicitly identifies the five-person cast and director, but does not identify individual characters; do not infer those assignments. Original CST audition notice advertised a special 10:30 a.m. educational matinee on March 7, 2025. Contemporary coverage emphasized dramatic celestial lighting effects and ambient sound; technical designer names are not confirmed in the supplied sources. An approximately two-hour runtime including one intermission was reported in secondary research. Season 41 regular performance schedule comprised ten performances over three weekends. Supported in part by the Oklahoma Arts Council, National Endowment for the Arts, Inasmuch Foundation, Kirkpatrick Family Fund, and Allied Arts.
