Photos have just been released for Playmakers Repertory Company's production of The Confederates. The show runs from March 3 through March 25, 2025. Cast includes Elizabeth Dye, Kathryn Hunter-Williams*, Tia James*, Mengwe Wampimewah, and Kristofer Wilson*.
This groundbreaking play weaves a tapestry of parallel struggles for two brilliant Black women living centuries apart. Sara, a Union spy during the Civil War, and Sandra, a modern-day university professor, confront intersecting biases of racism and sexism that feel all too familiar. It’s a provocative, highly theatrical exploration that challenges perceptions and resonates with humor and intelligence.
Artistic team includes Christopher Windom (Director), Lex Liang (Scenic Designer), Elton Bradman (Sound Designer), Lormarev Jones (Intimacy Director), Jacqueline E. Lawton (Dramaturg), Pamela A. Bond (Costume Designer), Latrice Lovett (Lighting Designer), Gwendolyn Schwinke (Voice Coach), Aspen Blake Jackson* (Stage Manager), and Sarah Smiley* (Assistant Stage Manager).
