Photo Flash: Meet the Cast of BARBECUE, Opening This Spring at the Lyric Stage

The Lyric Stage Company of Boston presents Barbecue by Robert O'Hara, directed by Summer L. Williams and running April 7 - May 7, 2017. Scroll down for a sneak peek at the company!

In Barbecue, the O'Mallery family gather in their local park to share some barbecue and straight talk with their sister. They are the kind of family that comes to an intervention armed with a Taser, even though their own downward spirals rival hers. But that's only the beginning as familial and cultural stereotypes are stripped away. Director Summer L. Williams (Intimate Apparel; By the Way, Meet Vera Stark) will have the audience racing to keep up with all the surprises and reversals in this piercingly funny new play.

Featuring: Ramona Lisa Alexander*, Sarah Elizabeth Bedard, Lyndsay Allyn Cox, Bryan T. Donovan*, Jackie Davis, Adrianne Krstansky*, Deb Martin*, James R. Milord, Christine Power, and Jasmine Rush*.

On the creative team: Scenic Design, Jessica Pizzuti; Costume Design, Tyler Kinney**; Lighting Design, Jen Rock; and Sound Design, David Wilson.
