I had the pleasure of directing this piece years ago with the bahamian Repertory Company in the bahamas. And we had a wonderful cast, all bahamian actors, many of whom were professionals during the day, attorneys, architects, couple of doctors. And they went about this as though it were their calling.

And im looking forward to it. The other par
