Final Two Weeks To See Roundabout's TONI STONE Off-Broadway

Roundabout Theatre Company (Todd Haimes, Artistic Director/CEO), in association with Samantha Barrie, will conclude the world premiere production of TONI STONE, by Lydia R. Diamond, with direction by Pam MacKinnon, on Sunday, August 11.

The cast includes Eric Berryman (Stretch), Harvy Blanks (Alberga), Phillip James Brannon (King Tut), Daniel J. Bryant (Spec), Jonathan Burke (Elzie), Toney Goins (Jimmy), Kenn E. Head (Millie), Ezra Knight (Woody) and April Matthis (Toni Stone).

At the time of closing, Toni Stone will have played 30 preview performances and 61 regular performances. Previews began May 23, 2019 and opened officially on June 20, 2019 at the Laura Pels Theatre in the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre (111 West 46th Street).

As part of Roundabout's commitment to foster talent through the New Play Initiative, this world premiere was commissioned by Roundabout and Samantha Barrie. The production has been in development since 2013 at Roundabout with Mses. Diamond, Brown and MacKinnon (a Roundabout Associate Artist).

Toni Stone is an encyclopedia of baseball stats. She's got a great arm. And she doesn't understand why she can't play with the boys. Stone knocks it out of the park as the first woman to go pro in the Negro Leagues. Featuring a bullpen of players crossing age, race and gender to portray all supporting roles, Toni Stone is a vibrant new play about staying in the game, playing hard, playing smart, and playing your own way.

The creative team includes Camille A. Brown (Choreography), Riccardo Hernandez (Sets), Allen Lee Hughes (Lights), Dede Ayite (Costumes), Daniel Baker & Aaron Meicht (Original Music & Sound Design).
