Kasey Brown, Sam Bruce, and More Join Cast of Laura Hirschberg's HEART OF OAK at Everyday Inferno Theatre Co.

Everyday Inferno Theatre Company announces the full cast for their upcoming world premiere production of Laura Hirschberg's "Heart of Oak", produced as part of the upcoming 2015 NYC FRIGID Festival.

Fleeing an arranged marriage, Princess Alvida commandeers a pirate vessel and assembles an unlikely crew of laundry women, seamstresses, and cooks. As she struggles with opposing roles - pirate and princess - her betrothed finds himself falling for a woman he's barely met. Shanties and swordfights frame this theatrical tale of love on the high seas...

This premiere production, directed by Anais Koivisto, will feature Kasey Brown (Eva), Sam Bruce (Sibyll), Dax Dupuy (Hanna), Mariah Freda (Johanna), Leslie Gauthier (Alvida), Tsebiyah Mishael (Liv), Jacob Owen (Alfred), and Cristina M. Ramos (Rona). Heart of Oak is produced by Katherine Sommer as part of the FRIGID Festival, and features stage combat designed by Jon Meyer.
