Debbie Tucker Green's HANG Will Play at 1st Stage Theatre
hang will run at 1st Stage from March 13-30, 2025.
One crime. One room. Three people. A woman’s unspeakable decision as the criminal’s fate hangs in the balance. Set in a haunting world where every word is a revelation and every silence speaks volumes, this electrifying production will take you on a journey through the complexities of justice and human nature. This 2015 hit from London’s Royal Court is provocative, touching, and darkly humorous.
The 1st Stage production of hang features returning 1st Stage artists Lolita Marie (The Royale, Well, Doubt: A Parable) and Patrick Joy (The Nance, columbinus), and welcomes Ellis Greer to 1st Stage. The production is directed by 1st Stage Associate Artistic Director Deidra LaWan Starnes (Quilters, The Rainmaker, A Civil War Christmas, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, and others).
The design team includes: scenic design by Giorgos Tsappas, lighting design by Venus Gulbranson, sound design by Justin Schmitz, costume design by Cidney Forkpah, props design by Pauline Lamb, dialect coaching by Jeri Marshall, and intimacy coaching by Lorraine Ressegger.
