Crystal Lucas-Perry leads the ensemble alongside John-Michael Lyles, Cartreze Tucker, Samantha Williams, and Stephen Scott Wormley sharing the title role.
The Fire Ensemble has announced the full cast for Pericles: In Concert, a one-night-only benefit concert celebrating Troy Anthony’s Obie-winning gospel adaptation of William Shakespeare play.
