Power dynamics shift as their manager Reggie is torn between doing right by his work family, and by the red tape in his office. When the line between blue collar and white collar gets blurred, how far over the lines are they willing to step?
Directing the play will be GSU Assistant Professor Dr. Prince Duren.
“I could not have asked for a better cast to make my directorial debut with because they have truly brought this play to life,” Dr. Duren said. “There is truly something special about your first cast. While there will be others sure enough, you’ll never forget your first. I am excited for what is to come with the number of talented artists we have in our department. Theater is alive and well in the Visual and Performing Arts Department here at GSU.”

• Lakeidrick Wimberly as “Reggie”
