Eclipse Theatre Company Announces The Cast Of WHY TORTURE IS WRONG, AND THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE THEM Image

Eclipse Theatre Company, the only Midwest theatre company to feature one playwright in one season, will conclude their 2019 Christopher Durang Season this winter with a production of Why Torture is Wrong, and the People Who Love Them, with Steve Scott directing.

Durang turns political humor upside down with this raucous and provocative satire about America's growing homeland "insecurity."

STAFF:          Eclipse Ensemble Members Steve Scott (Director), Zach Bloomfield (Casting Director), Ashley Bowman (Production Manager), Kevin Scott (Managing Director), Kevin Hagan (Set Designer)

Guest Artists Matt Sharp (Lighting Designer), Sam Rausch (Prop Designer), Hannah Donovan (Stage Manager), Steve Labedz (Sound Designer), Rachel Lambert (Costume Designer), Rachel Flesher (Intimacy/Fight Choreographer), Jordan Tragash (Assistant Director)
