Cast Announced for LUNA GALE at Dayton Theatre Guild

DTGDayton Theatre Guild is pleased to announce the cast of LUNA GALE by Rebecca Gilman.

The cast in order of appearance:
  • Kayla Graham as Karlie
  • Andrew Poplin as Peter
  • Cheryl Mellen as Caroline
  • Cassandra Engber as Cindy
  • Heather Atkinson as Lourdes
  • Tim Moore as Cliff
  • John-Michael Lander as Pastor Jay

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL!

LUNA GALE is a very contemporary play about a veteran social worker who believes she has a typical case on her hands when she meets two teenage drug addicts accused of neglecting their baby daughter, Luna Gale. The social worker places the six month old baby in the care of her maternal grandmother, Cindy, who requests permanent adoption. Is it better for the child to be reared by a rabidly evangelical grandmother or eventually to be reunited with the rehabilitated parents? This is a play about moral dilemma, faith and forgiveness.

Tom Durnin is a disgraced lawyer who returns to his family seeking redemption after serving time in prison for a white-collar crime. He is determined to win back the respect he believes he deserves, even if that means ripping apart the new life his family has so carefully put together in his absence. This play is about the price we pay for defaulting on those we love.
