The cast includes De'Adre Aziza as Rose, Omari K. Chancellor as Cory, Mister Fitzgerald as Lyons, Rondrell McCormick as Jim Bono, Dorian Missick as Troy Maxson, and Donathan Walters as Gabriel. Justus Alexander and Ariele Maye Rivers will alternate the role of Raynell. Understudies include Lance D. Bush, Trevor Butler, Derrick Parker, and Kayce Wilson.
