The cast features Stephen "Blu" Allen as Reverend D/Baby, Tarina Bradshaw as Welfare/Bully, Nyajai Ellison as Hester La Negrita, Ian Maryfield as Chilli/Jabber, Alison Schaufler as Amiga Gringa/Beauty, and Austyn Williamson as Doctor/Trouble.

IN THE BLOOD is modern day riff on Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter and tells the story of Hester La Negrita, a homeless mother of five, living under a bridge with her children. Labeled as a slut and denounced by the world around her, Hester seeks absolution.
