As the world hurtles ever faster in the wrong direction, Addy discovers she may have the power to make it better. Joining with the members of a small town prayer circle, four people try to convince their pastor to pray with them… to bring about some killer results. Erik Gernand, Redtwist’s resident playwright, invites audiences to a darkly comedic debate – how far would you go to save your country?

Matthews (he/him, Pastor Evans); Andi Muriel (she/they, Addy); Kezia Waters (he/they, Doug); Macaria Chaparro Martinez* (she/they, Carol); Natalie Rae (she/her, Marilyn U/S); Jeff Menezes (he/him, Pastor Evans U/S); Jessie Skonesey (she/her, Addy U/S) and Marco Antonio Perez (he/they, Doug U/S).
The creative team of Prayer Circle includes Erik Gernand (he/him, playwright); Dusty Brown (they/them, director); Joshua Servantez (he/him, assistant director); Lauren Volkart (she/her, stage manager); J Bestul (he/him, dramaturg); Jeff Brain (he/him, scenic designer); Leo Bassow (he/they, props designer); Piper Kirchhoffer* (she/her, lighting designer);Madeline Felauer (she/her, costume designer) and Charlie Tolbert (they/them, production manager).
