Photo Flash: First Look at LUNA GALE at Capital Stage

By:

Capital Stage continues its 2017-18 Season: Future Tense with the Sacramento Premiere of Luna Gale by award-winning playwright Rebecca Gilman. This 2015 Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle Award-winning play tells the story of a fight for who and what is best for the future of baby Luna. Luna Gale will be the second production of Capital Stage's 13th Season, and will run from October 18 - November 19, 2017 with a Press Opening on Saturday, October 21, 2017 at 8pm. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

Caroline Cox has been working in the Department of Human Services for 25 years. She thinks troubled teenagers Peter and Karlie, the parents of newborn Luna Gale, are a typical case. But she discovers an array of unspoken motives amongst all the parties with an interest in Luna's future. With events accelerating and Caroline uncovering more of the truth, her conclusions begin to look startlingly unconventional - even to her.

Luna Gale will be directed by Michael Stevenson and will feature Lauren Hirsch (Capital Stage debut), Ian Hopps (Stupid F##king Bird), Shannon Mahoney (Clybourne Park, Maple and Vine, ENRON, In The Next Room or The Vibrator Play), Jezabel Olivares (Capital Stage debut), Amy Resnick (August: Osage County, Blackberry Winter), Peter Story (Capital Stage debut), and Aaron Wilton (The Santaland Diaries, Clybourne Park, ENRON). The production design team will include Timothy McNamara (Scenic design), Rebecca Redmond (Costume design), Ron Madonia (Lighting design), Irene Velasquez (Properties design), and Ed Lee (Sound design).

Tickets are currently available at the Capital Stage Box Office, by phone at 916-995-5464, or online at capstage.org.
