Casting Announced for CHILDREN OF CAMELOT at SheNYC Festival

Casting has been announced for the new play CHILDREN OF CAMELOT by Nakisa Aschtiani, which will run at the Connelly Theater this July as part of the SheNYC Summer Theater Festival.

This alternate reality play takes us back to the 1960s and introduces us to the Kennedy and Oswald families. It shows what life might have been like for these two families, brought together forever through tragedy under the most extraordinary circumstances. Woven between reality and conjecture, Children of Camelot is a modern historical drama that interests, intrigues, and inspires audiences to question history and the choices that shape America's future.

This groundbreaking show will star Tanya Gorlow (Horror Haiku) as Jackie Kennedy, Jeremy Krasovic as Lee Harvey Oswald, and Jeff Cheezum as attorney Mark Lane. It will also feature Travis Goodman, Brenda Kenworth, Madeleine Cheezum, Evan Battle, and Randy Pound. It will be directed by Kate Felton.
