Also in the cast in this unique and creative production were Peter Josephson, Candace Gatzoulis and Rachael Chapin Longo. Music was provided by Cynthia MacLeod on fiddle and accordion and Nat Ward on guitar. Kelly Smith was the dramaturg. Puppets were used under the guidance of Vit Hořejš. Tayva Young was responsible for lighting design.
The one-hour play, over twenty months from conception to finished product, ties together two horrific human disasters, the Halifax, Nova Scotia, explosion of 1917 and the attacks of 9/11. There's nothing I can describe that wouldn't be a spoiler. Every moment of the play should be experienced without advance knowledge. New Hampshire is fortunate to have such a talented group as theatre KAPOW. Their fine work deserves a much broader audience.
