What happens when an unexpected event reveals Kate's deepest, darkest secret?
The Pittsburgh cast includes: Ensemble Actors Studio Artistic Director, Jaime Slavinsky (AEA | SAG-AFTRA) as Kate, Ensemble teaching artist, Joseph Martinez as Ben, and Ensemble students Jordan Moore as Leaf, and Ovis Mangum as The Doctor. Ensemble Actors Studio students Brandi Welle, Eugene Banks, and Jacorey Guidry will understudy the main roles.
